Green Vision
Sustainability is a primary concern for Vivolo, a company which has always been oriented towards a circular economy so as to offer a socially responsible and environmentally sustainable product.
Electricity consumption
to a minimum
Our electricity consumption is reduced to an absolute minimum thanks to the thermal insulation of our buildings, natural light, low-consumption lighting and ventilation in addition to well insulated high-performance thermal systems to minimise energy loss. Furthermore there are large green courtyard areas around the facility equal to the covered area for absorbing carbon dioxide.
Real sustainable leather
The tannery is an industry that was born to reduce the environmental impact. The leather that is transformed by the tanneries is a reused product from the meat supply chain. The tannery sector recycles large quantities of waste every year by processing waste products from the food industry, giving life to various luxury consumer goods including “our real leather” Made in Italy.
Concia green
VEGETABLE TANNING: The substances used in the tanning process are tannins, natural extracts deriving exclusively from plant sources such as chestnut wood, quebracho and mimosa.
TANNING CHROME FREE, METAL FREE, WET WHITE: leathers tanned with alternative systems, finished without the use of heavy metals, in particular: Aluminum, Chromium, Iron, Titanium and Zirconium.
RECYCLED LEATHER TANNING: residues from the leather processing that are re-compacted following specific techniques that respect the environment and are certified.
Impronta Zero
Considering the growth and sensitivity of the market for products promoting environmental well being, Vivolo created a program called “Zero Impronta,” which is a constantly evolving collection made with minimal environmental impact, utilising organic, recycled, recyclable, compostable, vegan, animal free, eco sustainable and solvent free materials.
The Luciano Vivolo Estate
