Sustainability and Environmental Responsibility

Being a producer means having responsibilities and also taking care of the environment in which we operate.

We must act now by implementing a series of conscious choices regarding reducing waste, using ecological materials and energy from renewable sources, reducing polluting emissions, and pushing digital.

Thinking in terms of environmental sustainability is a commitment for everyone, especially companies.

Kong has been active in adopting a responsible approach to its activities for years, and has obtained UNI EN ISO 14001 certification.

Below are just a few examples, the list is much longer and bound to grow in the future:

The 1,500 m² photovoltaic system generates approximately 200 MWh of electricity annually for self-consumption.

79% of our total purchases are made from Italian suppliers.

66% of our total waste is sent for recovery and/or recycling.

We prioritize packaging made from recyclable materials such as paper, cardboard and, in some cases, even wood.

We promote reuse through bags designed to last over time.

New packaging for helmets that cuts transport volumes in half

The new paper-based packaging tape represents another step forward in the gradual reduction of single-use plastic in packaging.

Digitization of user instructions through QR/NFC access and on-demand printing to reduce paper consumption.

Reducing catalogue paper wastage by providing alternative digital services accessible via QR code and NFC chip

Introduction of water dispensers and reusable bottles for employees.

The new ECOnnector finishing, achieved by eliminating heavy chemical treatments such as pickling and anodising

The installation of 2 charging points for electric vehicles.

Optimization of waste volumes through on-site compactors.

We do our part, but we ask you to help us by doing yours too by avoiding waste, extending the life of products with proper maintenance, disposing of packaging and used products properly...

Our commitment continues: improving processes, reducing impacts, and building a more sustainable future together.
