The adoption of sustainable practices to preserve the Earth's ecosystem is fully embraced by Cugher. In fact, the company periodically renews its actions to contribute to reducing the impact on the environment and to guarantee a greener future.
The company is aware that the production of machinery - such as screen printing machines, ovens and handling systems for flat glass - creates an environmental impact, due to factors such as the use of certain materials, processes and energy consumption. For example, using printing presses, especially for large-volume production, requires a lot of energy to operate. Furthermore, during their manufacturing, the management of processing waste could contribute to environmental pollution if not correctly recycled during disposal. The approach used during the production of the machines certainly contributes to increasing or reducing this type of problem.
To minimize the negative effect on the ecosystem during the production of its machinery, Cugher Glass adopts a series of solutions with the main aim of protecting the environment. It is extremely important to use sustainable materials, use correct waste disposal practices and implement energy-efficient production techniques.
Cugher uses eco-friendly paints during the production of its machines, with an emphasis on the use of low VOC products that are composed of natural materials such as water, therefore biodegradable and non-toxic. These paints do not contain harmful chemicals that could pollute the atmosphere or harm workers, thus being compatible with health, safety and environmental legislation and regulations.
Another important point is to choose suppliers who prioritize environmental sustainability during their processes. In fact, among other things, the purchasing department takes environmental certifications into consideration when selecting suppliers.
One of the strong points of Cugher machinery is the energy saving option which allows the reduction of waste in the event of machine downtime during the printing process - even for a few seconds, based on various reasons; the machine automatically switches to energy saving status. In fact, all machinery is designed to be energy efficient and to avoid the emission of fumes/gases into the environment, preserving native resources.
Although it may seem cliché, proper waste disposal is an essential factor. Cugher handles recycling techniques with care, to reduce pollution. This ensures that waste materials are managed in accordance with current regulations.
Companies like Cugher can help protect the ecological system through the combined action of different approaches: using ecological materials, introducing energy saving options, recycling and disposing appropriately. All these characteristics are an integral part of Cugher's productive soul and attention towards more sustainable solutions is always in the company's sights.
