Environmental sustainability in todobarro
Anyone that knows us a little knows that environmental sustainability and caring for our surroundings is second nature to us, as much as working with fired clay is.
In our blog we talk about every measure we take towards sustainability: from reparations in our land to the eco-responsibility we imprint in every part of the production process.
This isn’t everything, though: we also divulge information about the techniques, trends and sustainable practices that are carried throughout the world, whether they are brand new or an old tradition.
Committed to the environment
Here at todobarro we think it is our duty not only to try and avoid by all means that our activity jeopardizes our surroundings, but to leave a positive balanced impact on our environment.
To achieve that, we carry multiple initiatives and measures that we recount on our blog.
However, we also consider within our obligations as a sustainable company to do a pedagogical work abou sustainability , ecologism and the urgent need to put into practice measures against climate change.

We too explore the role of neo-craftsmanship within our company. We’ve been researching and experimenting for years with the processes of fired clay to find the most efficient combination of design, quality, sustainability and tradition.
The result is neo-craftsmanship.
We deepen into the ethical and moral principles that lead us to invest so many creative resources into thinking and executing preventive and reparational measures.
To do so, we gather expert witnesses, we interview every party involved in our sustainable initiatives and we research what kind of measures are being implemented in other countries and cultures, and learn from them.
