SUSTAINABILITY MATTERS: IMA ZERO
IMA Tissue&Nonwoven is committed to sustainable practices, which are a fundamental pillar of IMAGroup.
IMA ZERO, born in 2019, is the foundation of the Group’s sustainable development programme. It has the ultimate goal of minimizing environmental impact in industrial manufacturing, and of promoting and creating a working and living habitat that always puts people at the centre. IMA ZERO is composed of 4 main programs: NoP (No-Plastic Program), LOW (Low Impact Program), E-MOB (Sustainable Mobility Program) and YOU (Human-Centric Program).
All these pillars put at the forefront the environment and the people living in it.
