Sustainability

At Ferrarini we support it by nature

Starting from its own origins, Ferrarini set up a process to make its business increasingly sustainable.

The history of Ferrarini has its roots in the land, in its farming business of the 1920s. The transition from traditional to industrial production of agricultural products took place in the 1950s with the start of cooked ham production.

Ferrarini has inherited its values from the agricultural world: its respect for the land, know-how based on artisanal expertise and passion, and the development of innovation starting from the most authentic tradition.

Since then, the agri-industrial Ferrarini Group has grown considerably, becoming one of the leading European companies in the food sector, while remaining faithful to the “farmer philosophy” from which it originates.

More sustainable packaging

Over the years, Ferrarini has decreased the thickness of the trays of sliced deli meats, thus reducing by 40% the amount of plastic it uses.
In order to minimize its environmental impact, the company has started to use packaging for sliced deli meats made with 65% recycled plastic.*
In addition, for all products ready to be sliced and sliced deli meats, Ferrarini uses cartons made with at least 70% recycled paper.

Social sustainability

As important as support of the environment!
Support of the local economy and promotion of traditional distribution made of small neighbourhood shops, whose driving force are human relationships, have always been and will always be behind Ferrarini’s strength and growth.
Ferrarini has invested and will continue to invest in these Italian neighbourhood shops, which can coexist with the Large Retail chains, as it firmly believes that they represent the history of our country and Made-in-Italy excellence.
