Why do we care so much about sustainability?

A Benefit Corporation is a virtuous and innovative legal form of enterprise that balances the economic interests of the company with those of the community, environment and all stakeholders.
For us, choosing to become a Benefit Corporation is another step towards creating shared value in a responsible, sustainable and transparent way.

The transformation from for-profit to Benefit Corporation involves integrating the company bylaws with:

1. 
   The definition of the common benefit goals, i.e. which positive effects the company intends to pursue for a positive impact on the environment and community.
2. 
   The appointment of an individual from the management team who is responsible for the company’s impact, balancing the interests of shareholders and other stakeholders (customers, employees, suppliers, community, and environment).
3. 
   The annual preparation and publication of a sustainability report, which provides a transparent and full report of the actions carried out and the future plans and commitments.

In 2023, earlier than required by European regulations, we presented our first Sustainability Report. It provides a transparent and full report of actions already taken and plans for the future, with the aim of improving our impact in the following areas:

In 2024, Legami has strengthened its vision, by resuming its collaboration with Rete Clima, and supporting four international carbon offset projects. With this initiative, we offset the emissions resulting from our 2023 business activities, for a total of 11,918 certified carbon credits. This collaboration began in 2020, and it is a further step toward Legami’s sustainable future, based on the respect for the environment and people.
