We firmly believe that sustainability is a fundamental value for our future and that of generations to come. Our Sustainability Report is an act of transparency that demonstrates our commitment to operating responsibly and creating shared value. It is a document that we draw up annually on a voluntary basis to give substance to our commitment.
Operational excellence and sustainability: the pillars of our future2023 was a year of renewed commitment to many business areas:
- Improving on-time delivery: We have focused our efforts on improving on-time delivery, which is crucial for customer satisfaction and our competitiveness in the market. In 2024, we are further intensifying these actions, reducing delivery times and optimizing production processes in terms of increasing productivity and reducing waste.
- Quality and customisation: Quality and customisation are confirmed as Lafert's hallmarks. We will continue to guarantee the highest quality standards, offering customized and innovative solutions to our customers.
- Safety: Security is established as our fundamental third pillar. Thanks to the commitment of the ESH department, we are promoting a culture of safety at all levels of the company, with the aim of creating a healthier and more secure working environment for everyone.
Among the lines of innovation in which the Group is most committed, Sustainability deserves special mention, at all levels and in all its components. We will follow an industrial development model that integrates the principles of sustainability, transparency and quality, through concrete commitments and by adopting specific management and organizational structures aimed at creating shared value for all stakeholders, for the community and the territory, while respecting the environment.
Sustainability: a concrete commitment Sustainability is a central element of our corporate strategy.
Through the "Lafert Circular Evolution" project, we are implementing a circular business model that allows us to reduce our environmental impact and create shared value for all stakeholders. Through a training course that involved various company areas, we were able to raise awareness and put into practice concrete solutions to optimize consumption, reduce waste and recover materials. The project analyzed the entire production chain, from design to the end of life of products, identifying new opportunities to reduce environmental impact and generate significant savings.
Some areas of improvement on which we want to focus our efforts in the short and medium term are the life cycle of products (Life Cycle Assessment - LCA) and the reuse of waste materials. These projects will allow us to reduce our environmental impact and contribute to the creation of a more sustainable future.
In addition, during the year, activities aimed at transposing
the new European Directive on the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) were launched. In this sense, an in-depth analysis was carried out throughout the Group aimed at identifying, for each of the areas of intervention defined by the CSRD, what is present and implemented in Lafert and what needs to be developed in order to be adherent, in the year 2026 on the reporting of data for the year 2025, to the new CSRD Directive and the ESRS Reporting Standard.
