CENTRALE DEL LATTE DEL MOLISE - SRL, excellence of the capital of Molise and a reality active in the production of high quality dairy products, has obtained registration in the Carbon Footprint Italy program.
The company takes part in the path promoted by Despar Italia, together with its suppliers, aimed at quantifying and reducing the impact the climate impact (in terms of COโ) of branded products.
A concrete commitment that translates into targeted actions for energy efficiency, emissions reduction and supply chain sustainability.
With this milestone, Centrale del Latte del Molise Srl confirms its vision where tradition and innovation come together for an increasingly responsible agro-industry.
On Monday, March 3rd, the fourth event in the series of meetings organized by Carbon Footprint Italy, in collaboration with the companies participating in the program, was held.
The event was held at the headquarters of CROCCO, a reference reality in the flexible packaging sector, where innovation and sustainability go hand in hand to achieve increasingly ambitious goals.
For the participating companies, it was an important opportunity for discussion and growth, bringing together skills and experiences to improve together. Networking, working groups and the exchange of ideas made the meeting a concrete opportunity to strengthen collaboration and the shared path toward sustainability.
Starting from today, February 24th, 2025, the new website of CFIA, the international network born from the collaboration between several international Program Operators, is online. In addition to Carbon Footprint Italy, the following programs are part of this network: Korea Institute of Industrial Technology/IPEF (Korea), Programa Pais de Carbono Nautralidad - PPNC (Costa Rica), The Climate Registry (United States), Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (TGO) (Thailand), Toitลซ Envirocare (New Zealand).
The new site was developed with the intention of creating a unique database, providing faster and more efficient access to information on the greenhouse gas (GHG) emission quantification results of products and organizations registered in the various programs. Currently, a section dedicated to data from the Carbon Footprint Italy and IPEF programs is already available. However, the goal is to gradually expand the database to include all registrations of CFIA programs, to make the site an increasingly comprehensive international reference.
A special thanks goes to Yo-Han Choi (KITECH/IPEF), Jorge Vargas Vargas (PPCN), Amy Holm (TCR), Pathom Chaiyapruksaton (TGO), and Belinda Mathers (Toitลซ) for their invaluable collaboration in creating this new platform. We are excited about this step, believing that transparency and effective reporting of results is a key element of our work.
Until Friday, March 7, it is possible to send comments and suggestions for improvement to the draft document by filling in the template available on the same webpage.
The template should be emailed to the PCR Moderator or the CFI Secretariat (info@carbonfootprintitaly.it).
The PCR (Product Category Rules) defines the requirements and guidelines to be followed to calculate the Carbon Footprint of all components and accessories of bicycles or other non-motorized vehicles, as outlined by the PCR itself, in accordance with the international standard ISO 14067.

Tognana Porcellane S.p.A., as we know it today, was founded in 1946, moving rapidly from the production of majolica to porcelain, using traditional methods of firing, sintering and vitrification. Over time, it became one of Italy's leading manufacturers of high-quality porcelain tableware, and today its brand is an undisputed leader in the market.
Tognana has always focused not only on production efficiency but also on social commitment, also promoting innovations in harmony with sustainability. In line with this commitment, it chose to continue its path with the development of a GHG inventory for the organization, meeting the requirements of ISO 14064-1.
After verification by a third party, the certificate was issued by SGS, allowing Tognana Porcellane S.p.A. to register in Carbon Footprint Italy. Measuring its corporate emissions and obtaining the CFO (Carbon Footprint of Organization) label is a key step toward greater awareness of the company's environmental impact, as well as a valuable opportunity to take concrete action to reduce it.
Sutter Industries S.p.A., a company that has been developing cleaning, care and disinfection products for five generations, has registered 11 products in CFI.
We present one of the 11 registered products: RUBY EASY ECOLABEL ML 750X6, a super concentrated multipurpose detergent for the daily cleaning of furnishings such as glass, mirrors, washable surfaces, etc... The product is part of the Zero-Natural Force line, which envisages the use of raw materials of vegetable origin that guarantee the product's greater biodegradability.
In this context, the company conducted a quantification of the carbon footprint of its products and chose to register them in Carbon Footprint Italy, reaffirming its strong commitment to clear and transparent communication.
On Monday, Novembre the 18th, at COP29 in Baku, Kitech-KNCPC (IPEF manager) Director Sung Duk Kim and Carbon Footprint Italy (CFI) Director Daniele Pernigotti signed the Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) between the Korean programme IPEF and Carbon Footprint Italy.
This signature will allow products already registered in one of the two programs to access the other country's program through a simple administrative step, without the need to duplicate verification activities.
We are very pleased with this milestone, proof of a great collaboration, and we also take this opportunity to emphasize that the Korean company CLO and the Italian company Fimap SpA (already a member of CFI), will be the first to obtain the double recognition.
Tuesday 24th September 2024 saw the third in a series of meetings that Carbon Footprint Italy is organising, in collaboration with the companies registered in the programme.
The event took place at the new headquarters of Zordan, a leading company in the creation of sartorial retail spaces for luxury brands.
For the registered companies that participated, it was an opportunity to reaffirm their willingness to collaborate by undertaking common activities, with the aim of narrating and improving their own carbon management path.
The second part of the day was dedicated to a moment of sharing, with customers and suppliers of Zordan and the participating companies, the European scenario and the various decarbonisation activities of some CFI members.
The collaboration between Carbon Footprint Italy (CFI) and the Korean carbon footprint programme IPEF, managed by KNPC/KITECH, for the achievement of the Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) continues.
In July 2024, Daniele Pernigotti, Director of Carbon Footprint Italy, flew to Korea for the signing of the new Memorandum of Understanding, which changes from ‘Basic’ to ‘Advanced’.
The programmes thus commit to work together to adopt common rules for organisations or products applicable to each programme.
This occasion further underlines the strong cohesion between the two programmes and is a new step towards the Mutual Recognition Agreement.
