Manifesto
EN
The outdoors is central to our identity and our
philosophy. A love of nature in all its forms and a passion for
design that is in harmonious dialogue with open spaces is
paramount. Our idea of a sustainable product is very clear:
it should respect low-impact production standards, and it should
be long-lasting, both in terms of material durability and timeless
style. Hence our concept of design is timeless: a form that will
maintain all its communicative power intact for years to come.
We are led as much by the past – our ties with Italy and our
roots, the source of our Italian identity – as by the future.
In the future, we envision and hope that protection of the
environment will be a prerequisite for every business idea.
In order to make this vision a reality, we have identified
“innovation” and “respect” as the key words at the core of our
smart nature: technological progress is crucial for sustainability.
It is our passion for what we do that makes us tireless
experimenters, always led by the needs of our clients.
Function can never be separated from feeling; the concept of
comfort itself should be considered in its fullest sense,
as a value that encompasses aesthetically pleasing beauty as
much as it does functionality.
Values inspire us, but facts define us, and we believe it is
important that they are measured by an external body.
Which is why environmental certification has always been central
to our innovation efforts from the very beginning.
The LCA methodology, now standard for us, allows us to monitor
the environmental impact of most of our products throughout
their entire life cycle, from the raw material to the finished
product, in order to better assess inefficiencies and reduce
waste. Certain products receiving the Environmental Product
Declaration is a huge achievement: it means our clients can
count on transparent information that can be compared with
other suppliers throughout the world. Our goal is to eventually
extend this achievement to the entire Fast production.
