This week our CEO Marco Nespolo was invited by Rai - Radiotelevisione Italiana #rainews24 to comment on the economic implications of the new commercial duties introduced by Donald Trump. The discussion focused on the potential impact of these tariffs on Italy’s exports—particularly in key sectors such as agri-food and manufacturing—and their broader consequences on national GDP. With exports to the U.S. exceeding €64 billion in 2024, Italy is the second-largest European exporter to the United States after Germany. According to Prometeia, the repercussions could reach €7 billion, reducing national growth prospects and further challenging companies already dealing with high energy prices, complex bureaucracy, and rising production costs. Now more than ever, it is crucial to act decisively, and protect the competitiveness of industries on the global stage. Responsible engagement, clarity, and cooperation are essential as we navigate this evolving landscape. Watch the TV report here👇 #tradewar #tariffs #manufacturing

Actionable targets, measurable impact grounded in scientific consensus.  Our new climate action targets have officially been approved by the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi), a global body that helps companies set emissions reduction targets in line with the latest climate science. By committing to SBTi, we’re not just setting ambitious goals—we’re aligning our actions with the Paris Agreement's core objective: limiting global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. Here’s a look at our emissions reduction strategy: Near-Term Targets: Fedrigoni commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 47.1% by 2030 from a 2019 base year. Fedrigoni also commits to reduce absolute scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services, fuel and energy related activities and end of life treatment of sold products 27.5% within the same timeframe. Long-Term Targets: Fedrigoni commits to reduce absolute scope 1, 2 and 3 GHG emissions 90% by 2050 from a 2019 base year.

This week in Rome, we joined Bain & Company Italy’s "Meet the Future of Energy" to address one of the most urgent challenges of our time: building a more sustainable and efficient energy system for Italy and Europe. Our CEO, Marco Nespolo, took part in a thought-provoking discussion alongside policymakers and industry leaders, including Minister Gilberto Pichetto Fratin Assess Bil Piemonte , Stefano Besseghini (ARERA - Autorità di Regolazione per Energia Reti e Ambiente), Guido Brusco (Eni & Confindustria Energia), Enrico Letta (IE University & Jacques Delors Institute ), and Barbara Marinali (ACEA SpA), moderated by Bruno Vespa. Nespolo emphasized the need for a diversified energy mix and highlighted that diversification helps lower energy costs. However, he noted that the current regulatory framework remains too complex, making it difficult for companies to navigate incentives and permits. He also raised a crucial question: what concrete financing tools are available to support the energy transition? Currently, energy costs in Europe remain significantly higher than in the U.S., with wholesale gas prices up to 342% more expensive and electricity costs in Italy 118% higher than the U.S. average. This affects our competitiveness, but we acknowledge the government’s ongoing efforts to support businesses in this transition. While challenges remain, we trust that institutions will continue to take concrete steps to create a more favorable environment for companies investing in sustainability. At Fedrigoni Group, we are taking action with a clear roadmap: by 2025, we will set our Science-Based Targets (SBTi) at 47.1% for 2030 and cut emissions by 50% through investments in renewable self-consumption (hydro and solar), biomethane, and long-term energy contracts. Yet, regulatory uncertainty and unpredictable costs continue to pose major challenges. Businesses are ready to act, but clear policies and accessible incentives are essential to driving real progress. #MakingProgress #EnergyTransition

Last week our CEO Marco Nespolo had the chance of being in the U.S. together with Fulvio Capussotti for a town hall with our Fedrigoni Special Papers North America team, an opportunity to share our vision and discuss the transformation journey ahead. The brands increasingly prioritise local-to-local procurement - to avoid supply chain disruption and support their commitment to energy transition - while distributors and converters seek reliable partners with a strong presence in the region. By combining Mohawk’s legacy and product excellence with Fedrigoni’s global strength, we’re in a unique position to gain market share. FSP North America local leaders - led by Gregory Boisson - will play a crucial role in driving growth. #elevatingcreativity #fosteringpartnership
