The Italian company Pastificio Felicetti has been carrying on a specialized production in the upper Val di Fiemme for four generations.

A TRULY SUSTAINABLE PASTA COMPANY
“To appear on this ranking is a great privilege for us – says CEO Riccardo Felicetti – and at the same time gratifies the commitment that we have always invested in sustainability and that still guides our work. Among our most recent initiatives is the launch of a new pack, the result of two years of study, made of 100% natural paper of pure cellulose certified by PEFC and from responsibly managed forests. Moreover, we will soon inaugurate a new plant in Molina di Fiemme, which will be powered by a cogeneration engine capable of providing the entire energy requirement, making the production site completely self-sufficient”.
The declared goal shared by all Sustainability Award participants – promoters, candidate companies, rating experts, etc. – is to actively participate in the ecological transition process, disseminating and practicing useful and comparable performance measurement tools so as to bring countries closer to achieving the goals of the UN 2030 Agenda for the Environment.
