Officine Cucini respects the environment

 

Vittore is the son of farmers, he loves the land and this origin has led him to always respect the environment. Since the early years of the company he has made very specific choices that never forget it’s origin and why we must protect our planet.

What were these choices?

  • 100% Recyclable fittings;
  • Ecological painting;
  • Proper waste disposal;
  • Lean Philosophy.

100% recyclable fittings

All Officine Cucini’s commercial vehicle fittings are 100% recyclable at the end of their life cycle.

Ecological painting

The painting system is eco- friendly and state-of-art. Powder painting is a process of coating metal surfaces with an organic film, carried our for decorative purposes and protection from corrosion and aggressive agents. The workpieces are covered with paint poweder based on synthetic resins (e.g. epoxy powders), which adhers by electrostatic effect, and then passed into an oven. Here, thanks to high temperature, the paint first melts and then polymerizes giving a tight layer. The use of the particular paints allows us not to use solvents and to minimize the environmental impact of the company.
