A CONCRETE COMMITMENT FOR A BETTER FUTURE
Tracking the climate footprint of products by turning it into objective data allows us to implement specific actions to offset emissions, thereby reducing the impact on the environment. In this regard, Filmop chose to install a photovoltaic system on its headquarters in 2011, thus avoiding the release of tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere every year. Quantifying the impact of products in terms of emissions is the next step taken by the company, which lays the foundations for the implementation of even more targeted offsetting actions, in addition to the production and use of renewable energy for more than a decade.
In 2023, Filmop chose to make a further contribution to combating global warming by joining major projects for environmental protection and access to clean energy in developing countries, offsetting as much as 800 tonnes of CO2. This is the case of the Cordillera Azul National Park in Peru, which has undergone a series of activities aimed at the forest conservation of around 1,300,000 hectares, the preservation of 39 high value protected species and the simultaneous support offered to 28 sustainable businesses and the creation of alternative sources of income and new job opportunities for families in the 115 local communities, including 9 indigenous communities. Filmop's commitment to sustainable development has also reached Andhra Pradesh, an Indian state involved in the installation of renewable energy plants aimed at generating clean energy and promoting access to it for local populations. The project in this area aims to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and the release of greenhouse gases and other pollutants, while favouring the creation of job opportunities and infrastructure development in the region.
