One further important quality feature for Rivolta Carmignani is also that its products pose no risk to health. The company insists on independent product certification to OEKO-TEX standard 100 to guarantee the requisite safety for clients and therefore also their guests. The Vice-president explains: “In accordance with our philosophy, we concentrate on always being able to provide effective products. This is why safety is crucial for sensitive items, in particular, such as bed linen or bathroom textiles. Ultimately, we are able to actively contribute our guests' well-being in this way.”
With successful certification as an environmentally sound and socially responsible company to OEKO-TEX standard 1000 in 2010, the company went one step further and therefore also consolidated its claim to achieve as optimal result as possible in terms of sustainable production conditions. According to Aldo Rivolta, this step underlines the explicit objective of making environmentally friendly production processes and social working conditions transparent to the client: "We do not simply offer our clients products that enable sustainable usage through a good price-to-performance ratio and their excellent performance characteristics. They can now also be confident that the items have been produced under sustainable conditions."
The latest and most efficient machines are the basis for this, which guarantee high productivity on the one hand, while also saving energy and other resources, on the other. To utilise all possible potential to the full, all production processes are continually optimised. Aldo Rivolta goes on to say: “We have also installed our own photovoltaics plant with a top performance of 190 kwP, which enables up to 20 % energy saving and CO2 emission savings of 115 tons per year. And we benefit from certification to OEKO-TEX standard 1000, as we are able to organise our production processes even more efficiently than before based on the standard.”
