Green revolution with ecological coatings

"The data of our report Mal'Aria di città 2024 _ explains Legambiente _ in which we analysed the 2023 data in the provincial capitals, both with regard to the levels of fine particulate matter (PM10, PM2.5) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2), speak for themselves. In summary, 18 cities out of the 98 monitored exceeded the current regulatory limits for PM10 exceedances (35 days per year with a daily average above 50 micrograms/cubic metre)'.

There were 29 outlawed cities in 2022 and 31 in 2021. And those who think that the most polluted city is Milan are wrong. At the top of the city list is Frosinone (with the Frosinone Scalo plant) with 70 days of exceedances, twice the permitted values, followed by Turin (Grassi) with 66, Treviso (strada S. Agnese) 63 and Mantua (via Ariosto), Padua (Arcella) and Venice (via Beccaria) with 62. The three Veneto cities, Rovigo (Centro), Verona (B.go Milano) and Vicenza (Ferrovieri), also exceed 50 days, 55, 55 and 53 respectively. Milan (Senato) records 49 days, Asti (Baussano) 47, Cremona (P.zza Cadorna) 46, Lodi (V.le Vignati) 43, Brescia (Villaggio Sereno) and Monza (via Machiavelli) 40. Closing the list are Alessandria (D'Annunzio) with 39, Naples (Ospedale Pellerini) and Ferrara (Isonzo) with 36.

In short, Italian cities, from North to South, still lag considerably behind the more stringent values proposed by the revision of the European Air Quality Directive that will come into force in 2030 (20 µg/mc for PM10, 10 µg/mc for PM2.5 and 20 µg/mc for NO2).

This is the context for the partnership signed by REair with Acrobatica , which covers the entire range of REair products for both outdoor and indoor and concerns the entire Italian territory, with the possibility of extending the agreement in the future also to some of the main luxury metropolises (Paris, Dubai and Montecarlo) where Acrobatica operates. It is a source of great pride for REair to be able to announce the signing of this important strategic partnership with Acrobatica, thanks to which we aim to spread our products and technological applications," declares Raffaella Moro, CEO of REair. "In this way, thanks to Acrobatica's capillarity, we wish to offer a concrete contribution to the liveability of the city and the aesthetic enhancement of both historical offices and the best contemporary architecture, encouraging metropolises to use ecological solutions capable of reducing the impact of pollutants in the maintenance of building facades. At the same time, in harmony with the various public and private institutions, it will also make citizens aware of the potential of new technologies to produce real and rapid change and improve the quality of life even in the suburbs. "REair in fact has an ESG vision of the entire urban system and a democratic approach that benefits the entire city in its various residential realities. Sustainability in fact,' concludes Raffaella Moro, 'must also be democratic, otherwise it cannot be sustainable'.

"We are particularly happy with this partnership with REair," commented Anna Marras, CEO of EdiliziAcrobatica S.p.A, "because it allows us to further strengthen our commitment to sustainability. A commitment that we have been carrying out since we were born 30 years ago and which is linked to our know-how that is based on the use of ropes and allows us to carry out renovation works quickly and safely. We are confident that together with REair and its innovative products we will be able to create more and more value for the environment and people.
