Care
Caring for the world we live in and looking after its inhabitants
We firmly believe that our journey to demonstrate our responsibility to future generations is accomplished by adopting a responsible approach to the wellbeing of both the Planet and People.
It’s a journey spanning over forty years. A narrative that sees passion, tradition, innovation and responsibility all combine synergistically.
Responsibility – meaning our global concern for our planet – guides our daily decision making: from our ongoing efforts to reduce waste and emissions to using recycled and certified raw materials, care for the well-being of our employees, and initiatives to support the local community, as well as environmental, social and sports associations – both in Italy and beyond.
To underscore our commitment, Legor has now achieved B-Corp Status, officially enshrining in its statute our declared undertaking to effect a positive impact on society and the environment, alongside the aim of pursuing profit.
Responsible sourcing
In the world of jewellery and fashion, one of the main factors that affects the environment is where metals are sourced from. Using recycled metal, instead of virgin minerals, generates:
-80%
air pollution
-76%
water pollution
-40%
water saving*
To ensure ethical and sustainable production from supplier to end consumer, we have decided to make our products entirely from precious metals from 100% recycled sources and selected non-precious metals from recycled sources, and to have this fact certified.
