Compliance with European regulations: a step forward in the industry
Giti is also at the forefront of compliance with the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), ensuring that its raw materials come from responsible and sustainable sources. Despite delays in implementing the regulation, the company has already established control mechanisms to ensure that its suppliers comply with the highest environmental standards, thus contributing to the reduction of the ecological impact throughout the supply chain.
