Florim Wins International Green Award

FIORANO MODENESE, Italy — Florim S.p.A. SB is the recipient of an international Green Good Design Award for 2024.

The award, conferred by the Chicago Athenaeum and its Museum of Architecture and Design, along with the European Center for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies, recognizes global entities that promote progressive thinking in sustainable design.

Florim stone collections, in a 320cm X 160cm format and thicknesses of , 6, 12 and 20mm, are crafted through an environmentally conscious process in facilities where 100% of raw production waste and wastewater are recycled.

Additionally, photovoltaic panels provide 12 MWp of electric power. Those systems, along with two cogeneration units, generate up to 100% of the electricity required for Florim’s Italian production plants. When additional energy is needed, Florim sources it from certified renewable sources.

Florim stone is also a part of the CarbonZero project, featuring carbon-neutral surfaces that offset all CO2 emissions generated throughout the production lifecycle.

“Our commitment to reducing environmental impact is sincere and ongoing; we are proud that it is recognized and affirmed by this esteemed award,” says Claudio Lucchese, president of Florim S.p.A. SB.

The Green Good Design Awards were established in 2008 as the “Green” edition of the Good Design Award. Florim won a previous honor in 2021 for its Sensi collection.
