Eco-sustainability
E.S.G Assessment
The world is called to face important challenges related to sustainability such as climate change, demographic aging, and inequality. These challenges require radical solutions necessary to give a future to our planet, to our children. Facing them means understanding that today's investment decisions will have an irreversible impact on tomorrow and therefore they will have to be supported by a modern and bold long-term vision.
Matras is ready to face this challenge to best ensure the future of the families that depend on it and of the generations to come, as well as to develop the willingness to share these issues in one's own reality and become the main driver of change in the territory in which it operates and with the people it meets.
For this reason, Matras decided to undertake an E.S.G assessment process (Environmental, Social and Governance) that are the three central factors in measuring the sustainability of a company, the cornerstone of sustainable and responsible investment.
We believe a well-run, responsible company that cares for people, customers and the environment respond on one hand to purely economic requirements which make it more profitable and on the other hand to ethical, moral, behavioral, and sustainable requirements.
For all these reasons Matras entrusted to the Happily Srl company and to the Bee Happily project, the path that provides basic training on sustainability and on all the proposals, that can be developed within a company, bringing sustainability and ethics to the center of the discussion. Furthermore, Bee Happily, through targeted consultancy, proposes to integrate and implement some SDGs of the ONU 2030 Agenda in its own Company reality, through the implementation of concrete actions from which to build a new corporate culture.
