Environment: comfort, efficiency and responsible resource use

For Beretta, caring for the climate at home means developing comfort solutions that help users make more conscious use of energy. This commitment is complemented by attention to packaging and corporate initiatives aimed at more responsible resource management within their respective areas of application.

Sede Beretta

Comfort solutions

From heat pumps and hybrid systems to condensing boilers and solutions designed to operate with hydrogen blends of up to 20%, the Beretta range offers a variety of options to meet comfort, efficiency and system integration needs.

Gamma Beretta

Efficiency and energy consumption control

In some Beretta solutions, features such as control and remote management, together with components such as low-consumption circulators, wide modulation ratios and heat exchangers designed to product specifications, can support more efficient energy use.

When correctly integrated and configured, they help users and professionals manage the system according to the characteristics of the home and actual comfort needs.

Recyclability and end of life of condensing boilers

sustainable-ico1

Reduced consumption

Reduced consumption thanks to the low energy circulator and the ability to manage the boiler remotely via Hi-comfort App

sustainable-ico2

Energy-efficiency

Energy savings due to high 1:8 modulation ratio and steel primary and sanitary exchangers developed to offer high performance

sustainable-ico3

Hydrogen Blended

It is ready to run up to 20% hydrogen blended with natural gas

EXTENDED RECYCLABILITY OF THE INTERNAL COMPONENTS OF A CONDENSING BOILER.


In an independent study conducted by Ecoped, the Italian Consortium for the Management of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), Batteries and Accumulators (Ri.P.A.) and Sports and Leisure Equipment, on a condensing boiler Model 20139525 Residence 25 Kis*, the recyclability index was calculated on the boiler's internal components. The model examined received a certification of a recyclability index of 81.56%**, an indicator that expresses the degree of recovery of materials, the so-called Secondary Raw Materials (Materie Prime Secondarie - MPS), useful for being reused in the manufacture of new goods and thus reducing the environmental impact.


*The boiler under study is a DOMESTIC EEE belonging to Grouping R4 of the WEEE regulations according to Il D.Lgs. 49/2014, the result of the transposition in Italy of Directive 2012/19/EU.
** The study considers different recyclability indices of the boiler from 81.56% up to 92%, based on assumptions of disposal of the 10 constituent assemblies of the boiler according to the DOMESTIC WEEE management chain. The boiler demonstrated a theoretical recyclability index of up to 92%, considering a recovery of homogeneous batches of boilers of the same type with process technologies capable of recovering, as much as possible, all or almost all types of materials. Considering, on the other hand, the actual recyclability index, which takes into account the best available process technologies used by treatment and recovery plants and the heterogeneity of the batches, in fact consisting of WEEE of different types belonging to the R4 grouping to which the boilers belong, the index is 81.56% (this value is subject to change depending on the evolution of the best available technologies and the higher or lower degree of homogeneity of flows and supply chains).
The models below have an equivalent recyclability index to the model under study, based on the same boiler's internal components:

It is 90% and was calculated based on internal estimates and taking as reference Model 20139525 Residence 25 Kis* above.

Packaging

Approach to product packaging

Responsible resource use also extends to packaging.

For certain Beretta product lines or specific types of packaging, the solutions adopted may include FSC-certified cardboard, reduced use of plastic components, instructions for correct disposal, and configurations designed to support more orderly management of volumes and logistics.

Approach to spare parts packaging

For spare parts packaging, standardising package dimensions can contribute to more orderly management of transport volumes.

Labels and opening systems also support the identification, traceability and integrity of genuine spare parts. The characteristics described apply exclusively to packaging or product lines for which verified technical and commercial information is available.

Corporate activities

Responsible resource use is also reflected in day-to-day activities across production sites, offices and corporate processes.

Separate waste collection, organisation of waste streams, monitoring of energy and water consumption, and internal awareness initiatives can help promote more conscious behaviour and more responsible resource management in the contexts where these practices are adopted.
