Prosperity, preserved with durability
A founder's principle, turned into policy: grow in a way that lasts and can be passed on.
Quick answer
De Cecco frames its social responsibility around founder Filippo Giovanni De Cecco's principle that "prosperity is preserved with durability." In practice that means a formal Code of Ethics, SA8000 social-responsibility certification, alignment with the UN Global Compact and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, EPD environmental product declarations, and annual sustainability reporting.

Built to last
For a company owned by the same family for five generations, responsibility is not a campaign — it is the operating model. The values De Cecco names are simple: respect, passion and skills.
Those values show up as a published Code of Ethics, SA8000 certification covering employee rights and ethical supply, environmental management certified to ISO 14001 with EPD declarations quantifying impact, and reporting aligned to the UN Global Compact and the 2030 Agenda.
