Thinking about the future by living the present. This
is the philosophy that motivates everyone who believes in a better world. This
is the definition of resilience, the people capacity to change their style of
life to solve the problems. Never as now we are witnesses of lots of weather,
environmental and energetic crisis.
We need concrete actions. Today it’s important to do
what’s right.
The weather changes represent an urgent and
irreversible threat for humans and the planet. The consumers has new moral values
such as the environment respect, the decrease in energy needs and in the
consumption of no-renewable energies with the consequent decrease of emissions
of gas in the atmosphere. This new awareness of the consumers provided the
change need.
The climate change is not just an environmental
problem, it’s a health threat, because in a warmer world the infectious
deseases easily spread. It endangers the food production, making the soils dry
and not good for the nourishment production or the pasturage.
It damages the soil itself by flows produced by the
increasing level of seas caused by the fusion of the polar caps. Our destiny is
inexstricably linked with the one of all the species and ecosystems of the
planet.
It has
never happened such a high concentration of CO2. If it smells we would understand the real
danger. In May 2017 CO2 reached the highest monthly levels ever, as
it shows by the underlying chart National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration statunitense (Noaa).
Today both consumers and companies perceive the
necessity to enter in this new socio-economical directive. The main principles
are energetic efficiency, low carboon footprint, high- tech content in
production and products, the use of renewable and sustainable resources, optimization
in the use of raw materials and responsible use of products made by raw
materials derived from renewable sources.
During its consumption it goes not only from
cradle-to-grave, but from cradle to cradle that includes its rycicle.
To ricycle the garbage means to give a value to the
garbage itself, by recovering raw materials useful for the production of new
materials.
The wooden furniture, coatings and raw materials for
the paint industry sectors move fastly to this direction.
The furniture producers and its suppliers strive to
have a much more sustainable production. To reduce carboon footprint they use
specific coating materials and products with a low environmental impact effect
(such as waterborne products). They allow to have a more healthy workplace and
to considerably improve the quality of own domestic indoor environment.
Sirca has always
believed responsibly in these values and put attention to these topics. In the
last ten years it took a green route to strongly reduce its own products’
carboon footprint, by investing time and resources in reasearching and
developing ecofriendly and sustainable products, anticipating times and showing
a strong environmental ethos. You could not recycle a coater but you can
produce one made of bio-polymers produced with bio-monomers derived from food
industry wastes.

The forefather of this family has been OW120 and its
own catalyst CWN3IO, bicomponent waterborne primer, presented in April 2017, at
the European Coating Show.
A bath furniture has been made and exposed in Nuremberg
during the ECS, painted with open-pore coating that guarantee a natural effect.
The main goal was to demonstrate that you can reduce the use of fossils without
losing quality, performances and style, by creating an added value for the
consumer, another step ahead for a more sustainable life.
The choosen product, used as a typical water-based
bicomponent product, stands out for its 75% renewable content in the A part and
55% in the B part.
Since that moment R&D Laboratory of Sirca has
completed the technical solution available to satisfy the interior furniture
market, adding matt lacquered finishes, one-piece and two-component, and
textured, of the desired final color. Further completion is given by a
trasparent primer specific for parquet, that bind high estetical qualities with
elevated performances and best chemical and physical resistance.
The same attention and commitment have been dedicated
to the frames sector, by developing high quality products and outstanding yellowing
resistances and to the atmospheric agents, both transparent and laquered.
Sirca can praise a complete range, unique in the wood
coating industry, technical ecofriendly and sustainable tecniques that could
embrace every type of producers and final users need.
