Marazzi + Sustainability
A prosperous future rests on our ability to work with nature, not against it. Our dedication to sustainability is rooted in personal compassion, going beyond simple business. Innovative ethical practices, sustained focus on the future, and empathy for people and nature are defining markers of our commitment to sustainability.
Our Promise is to create beautiful tile responsibly. That means sustainability is at the core of what we do. Sustainability is about taking from our planet responsibly, making sure not to reduce its ability to provide for the future. Therefore, our promise is threefold. To cover all aspects of our business, we consider sustainability according to three pillars: Planet, People and Governance.
PLANET
We only have one planet. It’s up to us to make sure it can continue to provide for us. We take responsibility for our effect on the environment and have developed a clear strategy on how to tackle it.
2018 to present, we have reduced our carbon footprint by 17%.
Over 99%
of our tile collections contain recycled or reclaimed materials.
Overall, we recover and reuse
84%
of all process wastewater generated in our manufacturing plants to make tile products.
North American facilities recover and reuse over
300 million pounds of recycled and/or reclaimed material per year.
Our measures have prevented over 125 million gallons of wastewater from entering local municipal water treatment facilities.
We've reduced our total energy consumption by 11%
at all sales service centers and distribution facilities since 2018.
PEOPLE
Sustainable innovation is not a simple feat, we know that we can’t be successful without the help of our team. Our people are the most important part of our business, it’s vital to attract and retain a world-class pool of talent, invest in their growth, engagement, and innovation at every level.
GOVERNANCE
We’re dedicated to rooting out any form of corruption, discrimination, or harassment at any level of our operations. Respect, health, safety, ethics, and opportunity for everyone are essential components to a thriving work environment.
LOOKING AHEAD
Businesses like ours have a special responsibility to help. That’s why sustainability is important for business. We’ve made a good start at Marazzi, but we’ve only scratched the surface of what’s possible.
