Sustainability

Here are the steps taken so far

1. 1. Green investments

   Electricity is sourced from 100% renewable Italian sources*; solar panels have been installed on the roof, enabling us to generate some of our own energy and cover 8% of our requirements. The pasta is dried using a locally sourced wood chip boiler, which is capable of meeting the entire thermal energy requirement.

   Professionalism and respect for our staff are important to us.

3. 3. Supply chain and transparent relationships

   We are a farmers’ cooperative operating primarily on a mutual basis and, as such, we reinvest our profits in the interests of our entire pasta supply chain*.

4. 4. Open doors and relationships

   Through GranoTurismo (Locanda, B&B and Bio Tour), we have been welcoming, for over thirty years, city-dwelling consumers, schools and families, as well as farms, clients and partners, who wish to come and see and learn about where our pasta is produced, and the history and ideas behind the product. Through this space for discussion and sharing, we foster awareness and build relationships throughout the supply chain and beyond.

5. 5. 100% Organic

   We work exclusively with certified organic farms*

   The entire pasta production chain is organic, as are all the products we select and sell.*

6. 6. Rural renaissance

   Through organic farming and the development of a new rural culture, we aim to achieve the rebirth and evolution of our territory.

   We nurture intellectual endeavour through the cultural work of the Girolomoni Foundation, building on the legacy of our founder, Gino Girolomoni, and by taking part in initiatives in collaboration with public bodies, universities and local associations.
