Crocco becomes a Benefit Corporation

Crocco has become a Benefit Corporation in response to the growing urgency for concrete action against climate changes and industry’s environmental impact.

It’s a choice deriving from the need to adopt business models in line with sustainability and social responsibility principles, and reflects the commitment that has motivated the company’s actions for 30 years now. The result is a range of low-impact, compostable packaging for food use, with a constant increase in recycled material and often with zero emissions. The company, in fact, increased by 999 tonnes the acquisition of recycled material in the last year alone, adding to the 1500 tonnes coming from the T&T subsidiary, which recovers Crocco’s production waste, transforming it into new raw material: an achievement that testifies the company’s commitment to reducing the environmental impact of its products and in promoting a circular economy.

It has received important recognitions in terms of sustainable innovation and responsible growth, with the Campione della Crescita (Champion of Growth) 2024 award attributed by the Repubblica newspaper’s Affari & Finanza business and economics supplement and ITQF, followed by the CONAI award for Ecodesign and recognition as a Ministry of the Environment benchmark for “identifying, promoting and enhancing common initiatives aimed at the analysis and reduction of the environmental footprint of its sector”.
