“walking presupposes that at every step the world changes in some aspect and also that something changes in us”

Walking together day by day

If every step, every gesture, can change the world,
how far can we go together?

It has been said that “walking presupposes that at every step the world changes in some aspect and also that something changes in us”. Nothing less than a grain of sand from Italo Calvino’s story “The Thousand Gardens“, contained in “Collection of Sand”. Nothing more, we might add, than an invitation to act consciously and react, to be protagonists of change, together.

And sharing the lead in working together is one of the principles on which partnerships are founded, i.e. cooperatives that, also under the terms of the UN Agenda 2030 sustainability goals, are indicated as primary organisations, because they are most capable of changing direction and shortening the distance between the world as it is and the world as we would like it to be. These are lofty goals, which can be achieved even with small everyday gestures - a jug of water, an egg laid outside the cage, a meal not wasted - multiplied by being in relationship and acting together. Because, as we like to say here at Camst: 'Together we can do better and more'. For this edition of the Sustainability Report, we surveyed our Group's offices and workplaces, where we met many attentive and welcoming people, relieved to be back working together in our various corporate communities. As in previous years, photographer Marika Puicher captured the fleeting moments that make up our reality.

Small gestures to counter big emergencies

In 2021, Camst Group continued its work to reduce water consumption in every sector, implementing its policy of the sustainable use of natural resources. A commitment that has affected both the catering area - with the continuation of the dry-cleaning project in our kitchens, involving 32 premises and saving 17.2 million litres of water, equal to 7 Olympic-size swimming pools - and facility management, an area in which the Group can count on Ecolabel® certification for its cleaning services (a mark that attests to the reduced environmental impact of a product in relation to a variety of parameters, including energy and water consumption).
