Milan, the city that represents the epicentre of design and innovation, hosted an event of great interest that laid the foundations for a sustainable future in the construction and design sector.
Let\u2019s talk about the conference \u201cI\u2019m Steel Here\u201d<\/strong>, which presented the first communication campaign on the sustainability of designs made of steel. An initiative organised by the Steel Promotion Foundation<\/strong>, under the patronage of Enea<\/strong> (National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and sustainable Economic Development), Federacciai<\/strong>, the Ministry of the Environment and Energy Security<\/strong> and the Lombardy Region<\/strong>. \u2028The event, which took place in Milan at Palazzo Lombardia, highlighted the importance of steel as a key element for a circular approach and a zero-impact future<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The versatility and sustainability of steel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSteel offers countless solutions and brings great advantages with it such as durability, safety, convenience, flexibility and sustainability,\u201d<\/em> underlined Claudia Maria Terzi<\/strong>, Councillor for Infrastructures and public works of the Lombardy Region. And Italy is the second largest steel producer in the European Union and eleventh in the world.
However, the \u201cI\u2019m Steel Here\u201d conference highlighted an often underestimated aspect: the sustainability of steel<\/strong>.
Steel is recognised as one of the protagonists of the ecological transition, thanks to being circular, versatile, resistant, durable and recyclable infinitely without losing its properties.<\/strong> The Italian steel industry is a model of sustainable innovation, with more than 35% of the sector\u2019s investments aimed at improving environmental performance and environmental certification of products.
Moreover, with a target of 85%, Italy has the highest rate of steel recycling among European Union countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steel in the kitchen: design, hygiene and sustainability<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The versatility and sustainability of steel are also applied in the world of high-level designer kitchens<\/strong><\/a>.
\u201cIts low environmental impact and the ability to be reused almost indefinitely make steel a fundamental material of the circular economy,<\/em>\u201d said Anna di Gironimo<\/strong> from Covivio.
Steel is a material that offers innovative solutions also for kitchens. Safety, flexibility, durability, aesthetic quality and performance, recyclability\u2026
Hygiene<\/strong> is also a key element in a kitchen. And stainless steel, a non-porous and naturally antibacterial material, is the ideal choice to ensure a clean and safe environment in your home.<\/p>\n\n\n
