After more than half a century in business, we have embarked on a green transition that has profoundly transformed us, highlighting those values that we consider indispensable, as a business group and as individuals.
Coronet S.p.A. recognizes corporate social responsability as a decisive factor for its own strategic development and searches for an approach aiming at enhancing people within a model of business oriented towards economic, environmental and social sustainability. The Company’s commitment is manifested through the creation of new materials in the spirit of eco sustainability through activities aiming at reducing environmental impact, monitoring the use of energy resources, staff involvement as well as communication and relationship activities with stakeholders.
It is thanks to this effort and through the search for production processes that our innovative and sustainable BioVeg and H2O ranges, developped in the past few years, have contributed to reduce harmful emissions and energy consumptions. Coronet strategic vision is based on a deep value approach matured in decades of activity that considers the Company as a promoter of responsible behaviours towards communities and industrial development of the Country in compliance with the expectations of current and future generations. The Company has undertaken the writing of its first sustainability report for the year 2020 with which wants to make objective and transparent the targets achieved, the measured performance and the goals it sets itself for the future.
Innovation, R&D, respect for the ethical environment and transparency are the strengths through which Coronet intends to best face future challenges. Particular importance is given to the Company’s employees of every role and function to whom we want to address on the occasion of the publication of this first sustainability report a special thanks. The difficulties encountered during these months marked by the dramatic events related to COVID 19 and the consequent repercussions on business, have made it even more evident that cohesion between people in the Company allows them to resist and to look positively to the future.
President
CORONET S.p.A. is a joint stock company owned by De Marco Enrico, for a share consisting of 5.750 ordinary shares (1%), of De Marco Umberto (19%), for a total share of 109.250 ordinary shares, and of Alteria S.r.l. (80%), for a quota of 460,000 ordinary shares.
The green transition started in the last few years has deeply transformed us, highlighting a set of values that we consider indispensable, as a business group and as individuals. These values, which have their roots in the history and evolution of Coronet, have been condensed into the payoff “Crafted by Nature”, because we are convinced that the objectives of growth must be combined with respect for people and environmental protection, through the production of innovative materials with high quality performance.
Coronet complies with national and community laws and regulations and any other legislation in force in the Countries where it carries out its activity and avoids any discrimination based on nationality, race, state of health, sexuality, political opinions and religious beliefs.
Coronet undertakes so that the authority is exercised with impartiality, fairness and correctness avoiding any abuse.
Coronet undertakes to comply with current legislation on fair competition and to avoid the manifestation of any conflict of interest between economic and personal activities and duties.
Any act of commercial courtesy, gift or benefit or any present is only allowed when it is such that it can’t be interpreted as aimed at acquiring an advantage improperly. In addition, sponsorship activities that may concern the social, the environment, the entertainment, the art and the sport are intended only for events that offer quality or projects to which Coronet can constructively bring its experience.
The environment is a primary asset that Coronet is committed to safeguard. The Company, to this end, complies with the regulations in force in each Country where it carries out its activity and organizes its business and economic management in compliance with it. In addition, the Company works to preserve the health and safety of workers with preventive actions guaranteeing the physical integrity of its staff and working conditions that respect individual dignity.
The attention towards the circularity of the production processes, the realization of materials with low environmental impact and the identification of an approach that puts people at the center are the pillars that project the Group towards an increasingly sustainable future. The drive towards innovation translates every day into the implementation of a business model in line with the principles of economic, environmental and social responsibility. At the moment we are proudly active in some pro bono initiatives in collaboration with the Italian Red Cross and Unicef, but our goal – in order to implement a solid relationship with our stakeholders and promote the enhancement of a collective interest – is to change our legal form into a “Benefit Society” and acquire the “B-Corp” certification. Coronet could thus officially become an organization that, in addition to pursuing its economic objectives, contributes to maximizing its positive impact on society, people and the environment.
Coronet intends to continue investing consistent resources to increase Company sustainability, especially in projects related to the improvement of environmental impacts. For 2022 and future years, the Company intends to pursue the objectives described in the table below.
Investments for the construction of a new in-house designed facility for the production of solvent free and biobased articles.

To ensure and enhance the constant drive towards improvement, Coronet has adopted an integrated management system, i.e. an organizational tool to oversee aspects related to the quality of its performance, its interactions with the environment and to occupational health and safety. Sustainability has been at the heart of our strategic objectives for many years: since 2014, we have been working tirelessly on the production and implementation of two sustainable production lines – BioVeg and H20 – which stand out for the careful selection of raw materials and their reduced environmental impact.
Our commitment in this direction does not end with our sustainable products: our goal is to become a completely Carbon Neutral company, bringing our Co2 emissions to zero.
