In 2024, Wirutex strengthened its commitment to sustainability with the publication of its first Sustainability Report, prepared in accordance with the VSME (Voluntary Sustainability Reporting Standard for non-listed SMEs). This marks a significant milestone in pursuing responsible growth and contributing to the development of the local area.
The VSME standards help unlisted SMEs communicate their sustainability performance with transparency and a practical approach, making it easier to measure and convey the impact of their actions.
Although SMEs are not formally required to report on sustainability, Wirutex took a proactive step by voluntarily preparing its first Sustainability Report. This tangible step positions the company among the first in Italy to adopt the VSME standards and builds on a well-established path grounded in ISO 14001:2015 environmental certification and ISO 9001:2015 quality certification. A decision that reflects Wirutex’s ongoing commitment to responsible growth and continuous improvement.
Through this report, Wirutex outlines its ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) commitment, a journey that integrates these values into the company’s overall strategy:
For Wirutex, sustainability also means transparency: all data in the report are publicly available and accessible, allowing anyone to see the company’s tangible actions and results across the three ESG areas. With this first Sustainability Report, Wirutex reaffirms its commitment to a more responsible and sustainable future, for the benefit of the company, its people and the community that surrounds it.
