The attention we pay for the protection of health, for the use of certified raw materials and for energy saving has always distinguished us. In particular, we recognize the importance of eliminating from our production process every substance that is dangerous for the health of workers and consumers and for the environment.
This is why, in February 2016, Furpile Idea undersigned the Detox commitment, an initiative promoted by Greenpeace, beginning an important internal improvement activity. We share our commitment with a group of 20 other textile companies in the Prato district coordinated by Confindustria Toscana Nord.
Specifically, we are committed to completely eliminating a long series of polluting chemicals from the production for the clothing industry. This is a goal we have to achieve by 2020, our results will be certified by laboratory analysis and Greenpeace controls.
