Accountable consumption and production

Every day at Valcucine, innovation is driven by respect for the environment and for man. Our history shows how attention to sustainability has
been an integral part of the company identity since its foundation in 1980. For over forty years, Valcucine has been designing and manufacturing
products in compliance with the highest sustainability parameters: dematerialisation, recyclability, circular economy, long technical and aesthetic
life.

Finding solutions that combine functionality and aesthetics is not enough. Today, a new paradigm is needed. A model of sustainable development
at all stages of the production process and design thinking. Intelligent design that makes a concrete contribution every day and re-establishes the
right relationship between man and nature. This results in products manufactured with lower consumption of raw materials and energy, easily
decomposable and recyclable at the end of their life cycle.

Thanks to continuous research into materials and their limits of resistance,
our construction technology allows us to reduce kitchen structures to the
essentials, without compromising on quality. The proposed solutions represent
‘resistant lightness’. And pave the way for the responsibility of the designer,
whose work can contribute to re-establishing the right relationship between
man and nature.

We design our structures with elements that can be easily disassembled and
separated at the end of their life cycle and we use aluminium for our frames,
a material that is 100% recyclable and infinitely reusable to give life to new
products each time while maintaining its characteristics.

In asking what industry can do for the environment, we can find the answer in the
shift from a linear economy, made up solely of consumption and waste, to a circular
one. Made up of production and consumption, but also of reuse and recycling.
