Always evolving and expanding, Paderno distributes globally to over 120 countries including Europe, the Middle and Far East, Australia and the United States, and stands as a reliable reference for professionals involved in the food industry and restaurant business. Its wide range of products is the way to fully satisfy the requirements and needs of the market.
The company is constantly engaged in enhancing the quality of its products (Quality Management System – UNI EN ISO 9001: 2000) and consistently complies with the most recent laws relating to public health and safety. For this purpose, the new factory in Ortengo, Novara is equipped with a modern laboratory with high technology instruments (X-rays, atomic absorption, etc.), which enables Paderno to carry out its own chemical tests on the raw materials used and check their conformity to the standards required.
Special attention is paid to the environment and to general safety; this strong engagement is testified by the achievement of ISO 14001:2004 Certification (Environmental Management System) and the OHSAS 18001 Certification (Security Management System).
