Italy’s LUVE Reports 58% Sustainable Product Turnover in 2025

LUVE has released its 2025 Sustainability Summary Report, outlining progress on sustainability integration across its business strategy, products, environmental impact and social initiatives. The company reports that 58% of turnover in 2025 came from products using natural refrigerant fluids and/or high-efficiency motors.

LUVE describes sustainable products as those designed for natural refrigerant fluids and/or high-efficiency motors. The report lists CO2, NH3, propane (R290) and water (H2O) as natural refrigerant fluids, citing low or zero GWP and ODP values and the absence of PFAS.

The company says its Sustainability Plan was first included in the 2023–2025 plan approved by the Board of Directors in February 2023, and was later integrated into the 2026–2029 Business Plan. Its four areas are sustainability integrated into the business plan, state-of-the-art products, climate neutrality and high engagement.

For climate targets, LUVE reports a 36% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions from plants and offices compared with the 2022 baseline, exceeding its 2025 target of a 19% reduction. The company also says 68% of total electric energy consumed in 2025 came from renewable energy sources produced by on-site photovoltaic plants or purchased with Guarantees of Origin.

The report also covers governance, supplier management, Eurovent voluntary performance certification, sustainable design activities, R&D laboratories, employee engagement, training, health and safety, and social initiatives.

“Companies are first and foremost women, men and ideas,” said Iginio Liberali, founder of LUVE.
