An opportunity to present the company from the point of view of sustainability. It confirms the commitment in the transition towards an economy increasingly focused on reducing environmental impact, generating value and improving the community welfare by synergically combining technology, innovation and human assets.

In 2024 Moretto achieved an important goal: the publication of the Sustainability Report. Covering the calendar year 2023, it is based on ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) criteria and in compliance with the international GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) standards. The report confirms the company's formal and structured commitment to environmental, social and economic sustainability.

“For us, the Sustainability Report is a way of dialogue, to communicate what we do and to measure ourselves in new challenges in the socio-environmental field. A commitment that involves the whole company in an active and motivated way, a starting point that will lead us to set new ambitious goals for the future, underlining our orientation towards continuous improvement” states Renato Moretto, founder and president of the company. The voluntary publication, ahead of regulatory requirements, underlines the desire to implement transparent communication making known choices and actions aimed at minimizing environmental impact, generating value and improving the community well-being.

Product development as a key to sustainable technological transformation

For Moretto, sustainability is not a trend, but a value that has characterized the company and the product throughout its history.

One of Moretto strategic development drivers has always been the energy efficiency of its products. A path in which the company's commitment, the customers’ needs and the development of the dedicated technology have combined perfectly leading the production of innovative solutions in line with the current economic context. Electricity represents one of the highest costs in the manufacturing industry and solutions capable of significantly reducing them represents an essential competitive advantage.

Moretto offers several patented automations that stand out for their energy efficiency: the OTX drying hopper; the Hyper Flow turbocompressors; all the dryers that adopt the exclusive Moretto “X Technology” and many other products that have contributed to the company's success over the years.

The environment, an asset to be preserved

Looking at the environmental factor, the company promotes the efficient management and use of resources within its production processes and along its value chain.

The only use of energy from renewable sources in our factories represents one of the initiatives already implemented. The 100% CLEAN ENERGY brand identifies the origin of electricity from renewable sources, produced by the hydroelectric stations located in the Italian Dolomites, whose generation does not cause emissions of gases responsible for the greenhouse effect.

In addition, the achievement of the UNI EN ISO 50001 certification confirms the adoption of an energy management system compliant with international best practices that ensures less waste and a better use of resources. Minimising the ecological footprint of its business through energy efficiency, the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, the use of LED lighting in factories, the sustainable management of resources and the promotion of the circular economy are synergic actions implemented with foresight that have allowed Moretto to reduce its overall consumption by 13% in 2023, the reporting year, compared to 2022.

Value-based social responsibility and governance

The more the company progresses in digital evolution and automation, the more the contribution of the individual is recognised. An integral part of the corporate policy is the respect for the individual, the continuous improvement of safety and the focus on the welfare of its employees and collaborators. Resource management is conducted with the aim of enhancing each profile, trying to guarantee an increase in technical and professional skills, applying the principle of inclusion and respect for the value of diversity.

Furthermore, the commitment to achieve quality and sustainability goals requires a high level of employee involvement, which Moretto supports with training and awareness campaigns.

Initiatives and actions that find their expression in the publication of the Sustainability Report with which the company undertakes a transparent and shared path, with the belief that sustainable development is an opportunity to strengthen its organisation, create value for all stakeholders and contribute to a better future for the planet.
