Sustainability

Environmental Sustainability

Environment, people and innovation at the heart of the way we do business.

In order to look to the future responsibly, we put the environment and people at the center.

UOP S.p.A., like the entire IMC Group, recognizes the responsibility each of us is called upon to take in order to improve the quality of life for our generation and future generations.

For this reason, we continuously optimize the efficiency of our factories and reduce waste, setting ambitious goals that we intend to achieve together with our suppliers and partners.

This has always been our philosophy: designing and developing ultra-high-performance tools that ensure longer tool life. Fewer tools used in machining means fewer natural resources and less electricity required for their production.

The new headquarters in Berlingo (Brescia)

The new, modern and state-of-the-art headquarters in Berlingo (Brescia) have been designed to maximize the use of clean, renewable energy.

The building boasts an 800kWp photovoltaic plant to generate electricity and a dual water network for rainwater recycling.

The materials chosen for the new plant, as well as the window and door frames, were rigorously selected among those with the best thermal insulation performance and the highest energy class, with a strong focus on the environment and sustainability.

The new parking areas are also equipped with multiple charging stations for zero-emission vehicles.

Less waste and more regeneration

We actively work to reduce our environmental impact, internally and together with our partners.

Internally

We optimize the resources we need by reducing, reusing and recycling.

  • check_circleWe reduce waste generation by limiting the use of materials to what is strictly necessary.
  • check_circleWe reuse available resources whenever possible.
  • check_circleWe recycle and sort waste carefully.

UOP acts green! Our goal is to soon become a paperless company through the digitization of paper documents.

We have replaced single-use plastic packaging with 100% recycled or recyclable materials and avoid plastic as much as possible by choosing compostable products for personal use.

We also use Full-Electric company vehicles for local travel.

Externally

We promote a new model of circular and efficient production through our programs.

Our tool regrinding service allows used tools to be reground multiple times and reused.

The UOP Tool Regeneration program completely regenerates our tools, faithfully replicating the original geometries and helping to minimize both environmental and economic waste.

Solidarity

We put people and the environment at the center, meaning both the territory and the community that hosts us.

We are proud to support non-profit organizations and to contribute to projects aimed at improving the lives of those most in need.

We actively support the "Oltre i Limiti" program, a solidarity network that helps deaf-blind and multi-sensory-impaired children overcome social isolation.

Oltre i Limiti

Small everyday actions can make a big difference.

We are always looking for new ways to improve our practices and are committed to being transparent about our progress.

We invite customers, suppliers and collaborators to join us in this commitment to sustainability and help create a greener and more sustainable future.
