ITALY: Epta’s offices in Milan and the production sites at Limana, Casale Monferrato, Solesino and Pomezia have achieved compliance with the Carbon Trust Standard (CTS). 

This international certification attests to the company’s commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, along possessing a strategic plan for continuous improvement of its performance for the future.
