Geothermal and Solar Energy
Tacchificio Villa Cortese has always been sensitive to environmental issues: originally, our production areas were heated through the combustion of wood scraps left over from our manufacturing processes. In the last decade, we have installed a geothermal plant and solar panels, which generate about 70% of the energy used by the company and make it possible to guarantee truly sustainable operations.
Treedom
In December 2020, in collaboration with Treedom, Tacchificio Villa Cortese established its company forest in Cameroon. The 250 trees that make up the forest will help absorb CO2 emissions, producing oxygen and supporting biodiversity, and will generate income for the community and farmers involved. Link to the forest.
