STRATO®: How to deal with sustainability and the new frontier of social evolution

According to recent studies, the 2020 global pandemic led people to differently consider family spaces and natural environments. An evolutionary back to the origins that shifted the interest of the individual to other values. Attitudes towards time and daily commitments have changed. A new level of happiness, characterized for many by enjoying the small moments.

The priority now is to find the right balance between social success and private sphere. It is even a new and unique desire to live in contact with and in respect of nature and issues such as sustainability and respect for the environment are at the heart of the social debate.

In this context, two main topics come across and they seem to be strongly interwined with each other: sustainability and colour trends. According to recent studies, nowadays the trend is to research and select products characterized by natural and soft colors, which reflect the calm and inner peace, and originated from sustainable sources, respecting the environment in which we live in.

Following in the footsteps, in order to meet consumer demand and adopt a sustainable approach in daily practices, STRATO has translated this change by mixing colors and finishings with new products with low environmental impact and high-quality materials.
