RATTI GROUP | SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2017
 Ratti’s philosophy has always been based on leveraging the craftsmanship of its skilled professionals, and on investing in technology and research, with the aim of meeting the needs of a market that is constantly evolving.
Synergy between heritage and innovation has allowed the Ratti Group to work across fashions and specialise both in the art of printing and in detailed knowledge of various  bres.
For the Ratti Group, being custodians of “Made in Italy” and the preferred choice of the most prestigious Italian and international fashion houses means aiming at a product that is excellent both in terms of raw materials and in terms of quality and style, always guaranteeing the most efficient service possible.
The Ratti Group manages and controls the entire production chain, from designing the fabric to ennobling and garment manufacturing, in a context which harmoniously marries respect for the environment with production of over four million metres of fabric per year.
The commitment to sustainability is demonstrated by a continuous search for synergy between
the business and an ongoing improvement
in performance in terms of safeguarding the environment, developing employees and protecting social heritage. From photovoltaic panels to rigorous checks on recycling, each phase of production is monitored and guaranteed by certi cations obtained by the Group. SA
8000 for social responsibility, ISO 14001 for environmental management, OHSAS 18001 for
health and safety in the workplace, as well as Oeko-Tex Standard 100, attest to the signi cant effort made in all areas in which the Group operates and represent an important part of continuous improvement. The Ratti Group is also working towards obtaining the additional certi cations Seri.co e ISO 9001.
For the Ratti Group, sustainability is represented by the series of actions and projects set out in this document; it is a value shared by every employee and contributes to the Group’s growth through employees’ behaviour, ideas and work. It is, in fact, clear that active engagement from everyone allows more incisive messages and objectives to be transmitted.
This sustainability report – the  rst produced by the Group – contains a “Consolidated declaration of a non- nancial nature” in accordance with Italian Legislative Decree 254 of 2016. It describes the policies, results and initiatives born out of teamwork in which every idea, print or project has not just given life to an excellent product
that is an expression of Made in Italy, but is the result of all those values in which the company still believes in after more than 70 years in business, and which it hopes to transmit to future generations.
