COMMUNITY
- Our mission is centred on our commitment to make all stakeholders responsible for business practices directed towards a reduction of the impact on the environment, while promoting a shared welfare. We carry out social responsibility projects that support organizations and associations assisting weak subjects, through partnerships and corporate initiatives.
ENVIRONMENT
- We all look after the planet’s health: we promote sustainable life- and business styles, taking responsibility of protecting the ecosystem in which we live. We support enterprises that on a daily basis strive to protect the Earth’s resources and beauty, with passion and resoluteness.
PEOPLE
- We are committed to guaranteeing an inclusive working environment and we dedicate significant resources to the professional and personal growths of our talents. In fact, we offer multiple training activities, besides implementing actions aimed at the corporate welfare, promoting their well-being and their competences.
We commit ourselves to operate according to a sustainable business model, which not only generates profit, but also meets the highest social, environmental, transparency and accountability standards.
The “B Corporation Certification” is a designation logo licensed by B Lab (Italian no profit private entity) to companies like ours, that have successfully passed the “B Impact Assessment (BIA)”, therefore meeting the B Lab requirements on social and corporate performance, responsibility and transparency. .
We specify herewith that B Lab is neither an assessing entity according to the provisions of the EU Regulations No. 765/2008, nor a national, European or international regulatory body according to the EU Regulation No. 1025/2012. The BIA criteria are separate and independent from the harmonized standards deriving from the ISO rules, or issued by other regulatory bodies and they are not ratified by national or European public institutions.
Our board is proud of the achieved certification!
The Glaciers’ Caravan
We started supporting the Glaciers’ Caravan years ago. This is an international travelling campaign by Legambiente monitoring the “white giants”, aiming at awakening the public opinion and political rulers about the dramatic risks brought by climate changes to our territories.
A talent of ours follows the expert team in their journey across the Alpine peaks, documenting it with photos and videos, thus helping Legambiente in their activity.
Unfolded Sails
This is a volunteering campaign organized by Legambiente, promoting knowledge on the sea and a correct approach to it, that meets environmental sustainability criteria. Several activities are carried out on the islands of the Tuscany archipelago:
cleaning of beaches that are hardly accessible from land, monitoring of waste, marine mammals sighting, monitoring and control of tracks left by sea turtles of the “Caretta Caretta” species. The photographic and video material produced by us helps Legambiente in its crucial diffusion activity.
Humana People to People Italy
EPHOTO supports this organization in the production and realization of photographic contents for their online shop - creative art direction stage, banners for the home page, shooting sessions and technical promo or tips – while contributing to the creation of photo and video material during corporate events. This organization collects and sorts second-hand clothes, giving them a longer lifespan and the sales proceeds support development projects, thus creating benefits both for the environment and for social communities.
CIAI Childhood Help Italian Centre
EPHOTO supports CIAI – Centro Italiano di Aiuto all’Infanzia, an organization that, since 1968, has been taking care of alone or troubled children. Each action of this Association is driven by the combination of three objectives: guarantee protection, ensure inclusion and reach psycho-emotional well-being for the youngest ones. Only this effort can bring deep and long-lasting positive changes to their lives.
Rise Together Foundation
We contribute to the Fair Fashion Market project thanks to our collaboration with Rise Together, a foundation established with the purpose of offering support to people in need for care or therapies that are financially unaffordable. We shoot clothes channelled to the second-hand market, later sold through the “Vinted” app; proceedings are given to help the foundation in the achievement of their goal.
Onlus Book Library Farmhouse
We have chosen to support a cooperative society dealing with social inclusion, individual services and work insertions, while also contributing to the well-being of people working with us. This partnership enables us to count on a unique and healthy service: a weekly delivery of biological fresh fruit at out premises, helping our collaborators to follow a healthy diet and promoting their welfare and a healthy life-style.
Our daily commitment to the environment
People’s daily habits have a meaningful impact on the surrounding environment: some simple initiatives promote our talents’ virtuous behaviour. While placing distributors of purified water in our studios, we also distributed flasks and lunch boxes to our whole team, encouraging our staff to acquire anti-waste habits.
The energy we use is 100% produced from renewable sources and an objective of ours is the reduction of the quantity of waste we produce during our working activities. Given that the use of paper backgrounds is crucial for our productions, we decided to give them a second life delivering them to specialised paper factories, that take care of recycling and re-using them.
It takes courage to commit to a better future
