A tree for the future: the ilex crenata pom pom, or Japanese holly.
When this year’s Ambiente exhibition draws to a close, FASS will donate this tree to the city of Frankfurt.
In addition to being a small gesture of gratitude to the city that has hosted us for over ten years, this donation is also meant to be a tangible sign of our commitment to sustainability.
Fass is increasingly striving to pursue a business model that will have a positive impact on people and the territory, while at the same time bolstering its relationship with the community in which it operates by protecting our generation’s human, social, natural, and economic heritage.
To this end, we have worked to obtain certifications attesting to our adoption of appropriate quality, social responsibility, and environmental management systems (ISO9001, SA8000, ISO 14001).
As an FSC®-certified user for chain of custody (license code FSC-C156715), we promote FSC®-labelled products by selecting raw materials originating from sustainable forest management.
In 2022, we joined TREEDOM as a tangible sign of our commitment to improving the well-being of people and the environment. TREEDOM plants trees in specific areas so that they will grow in association with other species, thus protecting biodiversity, contributing to the natural regeneration of the land, and conveying expertise to local communities: all this is monitored through training sessions and inspections of the project areas.
We are constantly striving to limit consumption and reduce potential environmental impacts. To do this, we have analysed our processes and developed a GHG Inventory for the three-year period of 2021-2022 and 2023. Our goal for 2024 is to draw up our first sustainability report, in order to monitor our actual environmental and social impacts and, above all, to establish concrete short and long term targets for improvement.
