We have recently installed solar panels at our headquarters in Milan, Italy. We are now not only decreasing our consumption, we are also generating 209.116 MWh/year, covering 58% of the energy we need while reducing CO2 emissions by 101 tonnes annually. And all this is thanks to the 311 PV solar panels installed on the roof of the building.

We have implemented an Environmental Management System (UNI EN ISO 14001 – 14002-). We have obtained ISO 50001 certification to demonstrate the Efficiency of our Energy Management System.

We use recycled materials to manufacture our products, helping to reduce our impact on the environment.

We have implemented a Suppliers’ Code of Ethics to help us recruit only suppliers who are updated on the best practices in terms of their environmental impact and the efficient consumption of resources.

We use recycled materials for our packaging.

We are actively engaged in reducing greenhouse gas emissions by adopting sustainable practices and technology to contribute to the fight against climate change.

We have been awarded BRONZE rating by ECOVADIS, a globally recognised assessment platform that rates businesses’ sustainability.

Disano has set ambitious goals for the future, such as: continuing to reduce energy and gas consumption.

Implementing an effective differentiated waste collection system.

Continuing to reduce paper usage.

  Improving energy efficiency and extending the usable life of our products.

Analysing the life span of the most important product families using an internationally recognised and approved method for accurately measuring the impact of our products on the environment.

 

Disano has always made investments to equip its laboratories with cutting-edge technologies to promote the ongoing improvement of the production processes and the design of new luminaires.

MEASUREMENTS (third-party supervision by UL)

The Disano illuminazione laboratories perform photometric analysis with third-party reviewers of UL International Italia and are authorized to conduct the following tests:

• UNI EN 13032-1:2012 – Measurement and presentation of photometric data of lamps and luminaire, Part: 1 Measurement and file format.
• UNI EN 13032-4:2015  – Measurement and presentation of photometric data of lamps and luminaires, Part: 4 LED lamps, modules and luminaires.
• IES LM-79-08 – Approved method: Electrical and photometric measurement of solid-state lighting products (sec. 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0, 12.2, 12.5,14.0).

The adoption of computer aided design technology enables the reflector’s optimum configuration to be studied in relation to the distribution of the desired light beam and the determination of the correct ratio between the parabola and the position of the lamp. The experimental tests of the lighting parameters are then performed on the first sample of the parabola using a mirror goniophotometer.  The goniophotometer consists of various components, the core feature comprises the photometric tunnel, where the samples are positioned.   The following parameters are measured: luminous flux for each spatial angle, temperature, the electric parameters for the power supply are tested and managed using a process computer that enables measurements to be made in accordance with the international standards prescribed by the CIE regulations.   The light sources used for the measurements are prepared beforehand in the lamp ageing laboratory that is an integral part of the laboratory facility.  A measurement is taken before starting the final production to define the lighting unit’s correct photometric curve. The lighting unit’s photometric data is recorded and processed by the computer. Samples of finished products as subjected to the lighting quality control process.

PRODUCT SAFETY  LABORATORIES (third-party supervision by IMQ-UL)

At the Disano illuminazione laboratories, which use the same instrumentation employed in the most accredited certifying bodies, all products undergo several tests to measure their efficiency and resistance to use and to weather. Disano illuminazione performs tests under the supervision of two of the most important certifying bodies in Italy: IMQ S.p.A and UL Italia. The company’s laboratories, in accordance with the WMT/CTF-Level 2 testing procedure, are authorized to issue the ENEC certification to ensure compliance with the following global lighting standards:   

• IEC/EN 60598-1 – Luminaires
• IEC/EN 60598-2-1 – Fixed general purpose lights
• IEC/EN 60598-2-3 – Road and street lights
• IEC/EN 60598-2-5 – Floodlights
• IEC/EN 60598-2-6 – Lights with built-in transformers
• IEC/EN 60598-2-13 – Ground recessed lights
• IEC/EN 60598-2-22 – Emergency lights   

PRODUCT ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY LABORATORIES (third-party supervision by IMQ-UL)

Moreover, Disano illuminazione laboratories perform electromagnetic compatibility tests on its lighting products in compliance with the following global lighting standards:   

• IEC/EN 61547 – General lighting EMC immunity with special reference to surges, bursts, voltage dips and short interruptions and electrostatic discharges
• IEC/EN 55015 – Limits and methods of measurement
• IEC/EN 61000-3-2 – Analysis of harmonic current emissions
• IEC 61000-3-3 – Flickering measurement   

The company’s laboratories also carry out the following tests: chemical tests, physical tests and electrical tests on semi-finished products selected for production, tests on randomly selected samples from semi-finished products, functional tests on randomly selected samples from finished products, accelerated exposure tests of coatings to measure resistance to ultraviolet radiation. In this way, Disano illuminazione can ensure the quality of all of the components used, in compliance with internationally accepted procedures before each finished product is placed on the market.

PAINTING PLANT

All Disano lighting products have double coated surfaces. The double coating process is fundamental to ensure that fixtures exposed to aggressive outdoor agents are able to withstand such conditions as high pollution rates, salty environments or extreme weather conditions. Our surface coating department is able to meet the highest quality and environmentally friendly standards. Each luminaire undergoes special preparation and our plant is equipped with an air purifier capable of meeting latest anti-pollution standards.

The coating cycle is made up of the following stages: before being coated, each piece undergoes chemical treatments to allow a firm fixation of the coating onto the surface.

• STANDARD POWDER COATING: the fully automated powder-coating cycle involves a polyester-based, salt-spray corrosion-resistant and UV-stabilised paint.
• MARINE ENVIRONMENTS AND MARINE-GRADE POWDER COATING: the coating process for products intended for marine environments (recommended for installations within 5 km of the sea) involves a pre-treatment of the metal surface, which is followed by an initial cataphoresis stage and then a polyester powder coating (for a total of two coats of paint).
