In addition, the Group continued to invest in R&D, aimed at reducing consumption, optimizing industrial processes and developing innovative products in terms of environmental impact, energy efficiency and design. The Group pursued its strategy of extrenal growth, through the acquisition of 44.17 % of Modo Srl, an Italian company related to the Nusco family and operating in the production of windows and doors, further expanding the value chain in the production and marketing in the BU Windows. Nusco has also strengthened its commitment to ESG, drawing up the Sustainability Report starting last May, aimed at reporting transparently on the Company’s objectives from environmental, social and economic perspectives.
