shouldn’t cost the earth.”
9010novantadieci is future: our goals for 2030
9010novantadieci is not only what it does, it is also what it believes in. It's rarely simple, but the small actions that can challenge the way we act today will result in real and constructive change tomorrow. We have defined long-term goals, each of which guides our decisions. Our priority goals are associated with the United Nations Global Sustainable Development Goals. The Global Sustainable Development Goals or "SDGs" are 17 Goals identified by the UN that aim to safeguard the planet and the well-being of its inhabitants. The focus is on development that satisfies the needs of the present without compromising future generations.
Diversity and inclusion
9010novantadieci is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive work environment, where all of our employees have equal access to opportunities and everyone’s voices are heard. We respect and value all differences (seen and unseen) and encourage applications from all backgrounds, which will be considered regardless of race, colour, religion or belief, gender expression, sexual orientation, national origin, pregnancy and maternity, disability or age.
We are also committed to guaranteeing the same rights, access to resources and services towards women and people who identify with the female gender. As of December 2022, the difference between average wages between women and men in 9010novantadieci is 0.6%, as we aim to completely zero. Since 2016 we have been registered through the trade association in a welfare program that guarantees well-being support for all our employees.
We listen in order to understand our collaborators, customers and partners. We offer a safe space for people to speak about their lived experiences, and empower freedom of expression without judgement.

Sustainability in design
About a billion people live without access to electricity and use dangerous and toxic light sources, such as candles and kerosene lamps. We believe we should all have access to light, regardless of who we are and where we come from. A better future depends on the development of the share of renewable energy, and on the improvement of energy efficiency, as well as investment in clean energy infrastructures and technologies.
Furthermore, the environmental impact of cities requires more inclusive and sustainable forms of urbanization, which also start from a choice of safe, flexible, modern and reliable lighting.
9010novantadieci’s choice is clear: we work to spread awareness of this global energy crisis and to create LED light sources, strictly in non-toxic materials, such as our CRISTALY®, tested anti-bacterial and air-purifying and BETALY®, containing dust sourced from the recycling of other processes.

RESPONSIBLE CONSTRUCTION
There are many ideas about what makes lighting sustainable, but we are of the opinion that a lot depends on the attention given to the entire life cycle of a product. This attention requires responsible choices in every phase of design and construction, from the initial sketch to the end of the useful life of the lighting product.
We demonstrate this way of thinking through a series of guiding principles.
- Products must be designed to last a long time.
- Products must not be made with unsustainable materials and production processes.
- Products must guarantee efficiency.
- Products must be serviceable and consumables replaceable.
- Products must facilitate reuse, recycling and responsible disposal at the end of their useful life.

A sustainable future is a worthy cause.
