According to the EIB, the project involves a framework loan to support TECNOCAP Spa, a manufacturer of metal closures, in its energy efficiency and sustainable investments. These include improvements in production processes and energy efficiency measures, such as renovating buildings and installing photovoltaic systems in its industrial facilities located in Italy and the Czech Republic.

The aim is to support decarbonisation goals, lower energy usage and intensity, minimise environmental impact and air pollution, boost competitiveness, and create jobs for a positive social impact.

As stated by Bloomberg, Tecnocap Spa designs and manufacturers industrial machinery products. The Company offers hoppers, elevators, vacuum detectors, metal closures, and capping machines. Tecnocap operates worldwide.

As stated by the EIB, Tecnocap Group is an international industrial player specializing in the production of integrated packaging. It operates in over one hundred countries worldwide thanks to twelve manufacturing plants located in Europe, North and South America, India, and Saudi Arabia, as well as an extensive network of distribution companies and commercial partnerships. Commitment to circular production models and the decarbonization of both operations and packaging solutions is an integral part of the Group’s corporate strategy. In particular, continuous process improvement, eco-design across the entire life cycle of packaging products, and social responsibility are at the core of a growth model aimed at creating long-term value.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF EIB

The EIB Complaints Mechanism is designed to facilitate and handle complaints against the EIB by individuals, organizations or corporations affected by EIB activities. When exercising the right to lodge a complaint against the EIB, any member of the public has access to a two-tier procedure, one internal - the Complaints Mechanism Office - and one external - the European Ombudsman. A complaint can be lodged via a written communication addressed to the Secretary General of the EIB, via email to the dedicated email address: complaints@eib.org, by completing the online complaint form available at the following address: http://www.eib.org/complaints/form via fax or delivered directly to the EIB Complaints Mechanism Division, any EIB local representation office or any EIB staff. For further details, check: http://www.eib.org/attachments/strategies/complaints_mechanism_policy_en.pdf

When dissatisfied with a complaint to the EIB Complaints Mechanism, citizens can then turn towards the European Ombudsman. A memorandum of Understanding has been signed between the EIB and the European Ombudsman establishes that citizens (even outside of the EU if the Ombudsman finds their complaint justified) can turn towards the Ombudsman on issues related to 'maladministration' by the EIB. Note that before going to the Ombudsman, an attempt must be made to resolve the case by contacting the EIB. In addition, the complaint must be made within two years of the date when the facts on which your complaint is based became known to you. You can write to the Ombudsman in any of the languages of the European Union.
