Bees – sentinels for the environment

In 2020, the European Commission adopted a Biodiversity Strategy and the Farm to Fork Strategy to create a balanced, healthy and sustainable food system.

Two programmes that mutually reinforce and involve nature, farmers, businesses and consumers to work together towards a sustainable and competitive future.
In line with the European Green Deal, these strategies put forward ambitious actions and commitments to stop the loss of biodiversity in Europe and the world, transforming food systems into global standards for sustainability and the protection of human health and the planet.

Surgital has always placed great importance on the quality and safety of its products and processes and has been working in this direction for some time, implementing projects aligned with best practices for a health planet and healthy people.
In March 2024, a new step along this path saw the introduction of beehives in the company’s grounds where agrivoltaics are already installed. A project that contributes to the achievement of Goal 15 – Life on land, of the 2030 Agenda.

Our partner for this initiative is Beeway®, a project by Evoluzione Servizi which introduces bees as sentinels for environmental monitoring on the activities that they carry out in the food sector for pest control. Measuring the population of pollinating insects and checking the upkeep of colonies thus becomes an integral part of our approach to sustainable development strategy. Once again with concrete, targeted actions, we are showing that respect for the environment can go hand in hand with innovation and product quality.
