ABB Italy, in line with the Group's Sustainability Framework, is implementing and consolidating projects that have a concrete impact on society and the lives of its people. It is in this context that the Guaranteed Mobility Project activated by the Centro Lario e Valli Social Company of which the Municipality of Tremezzina (Co) is a member, in collaboration with PMG Italia SpA Società Benefit, fits in. The project will provide the Day Centre for the Disabled with a vehicle equipped for the transport of disabled users residing in the area.

The Measurement & Analytics Division, with its historic factory in Tremezzina on Lake Como, has chosen to support the Guaranteed Mobility Project to confirm ABB's commitment to social issues and proximity to the local area.
On November 24, 2022, the ribbon-cutting ceremony and presentation of the equipped vehicle took place at the headquarters of the Centro Lario e Valli Social Company. The vehicle will enter service and will make it possible to help almost 30 users with medium to very severe disabilities, residing in the member municipalities of the social program.
"The factory, with its approximately 250 employees, has been strongly linked to the territory of Treezzina and Lake Como for more than 100 years," said Mariafrancesca Madrigrano, Director of the ABB factory. "It is a priority for us, as well as a source of great pride, to support projects that have a positive impact in the context in which we operate. Last year we donated an ambulance to the Red Cross of Menaggio, this year with the Guaranteed Mobility project we will help the Centro Lario and Valli di Porlezza Social Company to continue to offer its valuable support to people in difficult situations, through its operators and volunteers".
