Sustainability policy
Thanks to an ambitious and constant path, the company has implemented concrete eco-design and process solutions to reduce the environmental impact, demonstrating that style and sustainability can harmoniously coexist.
Among the first exhibit design companies to obtain ISO 20121 certification for the sustainable management of events, Stipa has been committed for over a decade to promoting a circular approach, based on reuse, recycling, energy efficiency and waste reduction.
The main key points of the sustainability policy are:
Eco-design based on modularity
A concept based on modularity allows the reconfiguration of the exhibition space in different events, thus allowing the reuse of the same structures without sacrificing design.
The pilot project of the Martini Gelato stand, a Unigrà brand, respected all the criteria established by the Bureau Veritas to obtain ISO 20121 certification, from the selection of materials to the use of low energy impact light sources. The concept was proposed in several multiple fairs, including Sigep with a space of over 1200 m2.
Minimize environmental impact
Design choices and careful selection of materials allow over 90% of the setup to be recovered and/or recycled.
MAN Truck & BUS Italia and Stipa collaborated in synergy so that participation in the Transpotec Logitec and Next Mobility Exhibition had the minimum ecological footprint. Furthermore, to further offset CO2 emissions, 200 new trees were planted in the Stipa Forests.
Circular economy and duration
The use of natural and noble materials such as wood can give life to spectacular installations which, once dismantled, can become the material for N new installations until they are correctly recycled.
This is the case of "Italian Design: from Classic to Contemporary" organized by the Salone del Mobile in the famous Bloomingdale's department store in Manhattan - NYC.
Stipa engineered Archistar Ferruccio Laviani's project by creating an experiential pop-up scenography in which the wooden structures and wings are the absolute protagonists.
Recovery of otherwise unusable materials
The Vaia Forest catastrophe, the storm that destroyed 16 million trees in the North East, is an example of a drama that has become a second possibility: resources now considered lost but which have instead gained new life.
It is precisely from this source of precious wood that various installations were born, such as the Federlegno International Business Lounge, a regenerating oasis in the dynamic world of the Salone del Mobile.
Carbon neutrality commitment
With the awareness that the road towards total sustainability is a future yet to be written, Stipa has been collaborating with Treedom for years to get as close as possible to this result.
By planting thousands of trees across every continent, Stipa Forests help cultivate hope, promote a healthier planet and create a lasting legacy for future generations.
Local impact of the factories
Stipa is deeply convinced that companies have a fundamental role in protecting our planet. For this reason, the production sites have been designed to respect the environment and local communities.
From the photovoltaic systems that power the factories, to the reduction of waste and the constant commitment to energy efficiency, every action is guided by the desire to leave a better world for future generations.
