NAR and its ongoing commitment to the environment

We are pleased to inform you that we have entered into a collaboration agreement with one of the main Italian companies for the recovery and production of plastic materials.
The aim and philosophy of NAR are to give a second life to the production waste that is produced in our production sites.
The journey began many years ago and in the last two we have intensified the collaboration to meet not only the needs of European legislation but also the ethical ones of our management.
Today we can say that all the processing waste of bioriented and monooriented polypropylene tapes produced with the 3 available technologies, natural rubber, acrylic emulsion and hot melt are treated and give life to another raw material that is used in goods durable over the years.
In the attached photos you can see some examples of products also made with our adhesive tape.
We are working with this philosophy also to include PVC and crepe paper waste.
We are convinced as experts in plastic products that the second life is the best way from the point of view of ethics, environmental impact and saving of fossil fuels.

THE CELEBRATIONS FOR THE 60TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE NAR FOUNDATION

Great day of celebration for NAR which celebrated its 60th years of activity last October 7th in the presence of the entire company and local institutions, including the President of the Province of Padua Sergio Giordani. It was an opportunity to retrace the long entrepreneurial history of NAR, begun by Antonio Righetti in 1963 and continued until today, with the current President Carlo Maria Righetti and his sister Francesca, sons of Antonio, in the name of continuous expansion at the international level but also attention to the territory and the local community, as demonstrated by the support for many initiatives dedicated to the socio-cultural growth of Padua.

Participation at Master of Sustainable Chemistry and Technologies for Circular Economy, University of Padua

Environmental sustainability is an integral part of NAR for which we have always taken a concrete and factual approach, also by following the guidelines of environmental certification ISO 14001 and FSC®. To continue along this path, we have participated to the first edition of the School for Circular Economy, part of the Master of Sustainable Chemistry and Technologies for Circular Economy, organised by the department of Chemical Sciences at the University of Padua.

We believe that it is only through a profound knowledge of these issues that professionals can be qualified to take informed decisions on critical issues that have an enormous impact for the future of our planet and the next generations.

RENEWA® TAPE 465

At NAR we have always pursued a sustainable growth. Over 30 years ago, we were the first to answer the market’s request for a paper packaging tape with the original ECOMASK 460, with natural rubber adhesive. Today, that momentum towards sustainability has reached new sectors, which together with the modern packaging’s task to communicate, has pushed us to develop a printed tape that meets the requirements of large volumes with quality and efficiency: the RENEWA® TAPE 465.
We have internally developed an innovative printing technology and have worked together with our suppliers to ensure that the product is sustainable along the supply chain.
The result is a versatile tape, thanks to the natural rubber adhesive, with a print that is sharp, resistant and with performances that are unmatched in machine roll formats for automatic carton sealing. 65% of the RENEWA® TAPE 465 is made from renewable sources and we are the only manufacturer able to offer paper tapes with natural rubber adhesive that can be FSC® certified.

NAR for sustainable development

As a company we believe that we not only have an economical role but also a social responsibility. This is the reason why we have decided to sponsor the 2019 edition of the European Winter School on Physical Organic chemistry. Being now into its 13th edition, the school aims to draw the attention to the pervasive role the Chemical Science has for the  achievement of the “Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),” identified by the UN as the imperative mission for a sustainable future with a time frame up to 2030.

Especially targeted at all those people who are committed to groundbreaking research that can make our world a better place, the school thematic fil-rouge in every edition is to highlight the key role of Molecular and Materials Science in three priority areas of Energy, Human health and food and Raw materials and Feedstocks.
