We want to give new life to plastic,
making it an ever-reusable resource.
1. Circularity
We implement and spread the principles of a circular economy. We have two main focus points: using recycled resources that come from waste, and making sure that our products can be regenerated.
This is our understanding of ecological sustainability.
2. Sustainable design
In our opinion design doesn’t just end with the design of a shape, but is a way of envisaging and perceiving our
products so that they are not just functional and pleasant to the eye but also accessible to all, and above all sustainable because made using materials that are found in large quantities. We make use of what we have.
5 principles
we are pursuing.
3. Transparency
We believe in transparency
and we think that sharing our successes, as well as the developments and technical limits that we find
along the bold road we have taken, will allow us to reach increasingly higher and more sustainable goals.
4. Information
Even though plastic is a material with great possibilities, it has been belittled because of disinformation. The problem is not its presence in our daily lives, but how it is disposed of in the environment. We are therefore committed to elucidating on its true potential in the best way possible.
5. Responsability
We are responsible for our actions, and that is why we are constantly committed to reducing to a minimum the environmental impact of the production cycle and the materials used.
Circular Economy
Tera® believes in a circular economy, an economic system geared towards self-regeneration, where refuse is transformed so it can be used again, reducing waste to a minimum.
This model is different from the linear “take-make-dispose” type where matter and energy are taken, used, and then thrown away. The objective of a circular economy is sustainability during every process phase: from design to production, consumption and disposal. Resources that are already present are used, so as to reduce waste.
It means using what we already have in the best way possible, for as long as possible.
This model guides us
in our daily activity
and in each phase
of our company projects.
10 criteria and objectives we follow for a circular economy and social commitment.
The design of durable and recyclable products is the first step in eliminating waste.
Supply from renewable sources
We use renewable energy to reduce the environmental impact.
Responsible consumption of materials and resources
At all stages of the production cycle we use secondary raw materials deriving from the recycling of urban plastic waste and production waste.
CO2 emissions management
Optimization of energy consumption thanks to energy-saving, hybrid or electric machines.
Transportation and distribution
The constant optimization of the production process, distribution and logistics allows a reduction of the environmental impact.
Promoting a sustainable lifestyle
Encourage members and employees through social commitment and the dissemination of information in favor of a sustainable lifestyle.
Circular supply chain
We collaborate with our partners and constantly pursue internal research aimed at increasing technological innovation.

Shared value
Training and involvement of the entire corporate system to create a shared mentality and social value that can become a virtuous reference model.
Social contribution
Through voluntary activities and charities towards organizations and associations, we make a concrete social contribution in support of the local community.
Environmental reporting and certification
We concretize our philosophy aimed at sustainability by analyzing and certifying our progress, translating actions into concrete data.

Information & community
The commitment of Tera® is also a digital project centred on both a circular economy and on plastic, told through different cultural and research settings.
Art, science, technology and design contribute to the disclosure of transparent and responsible information, necessary today more than ever.
