In an era where individual well-being and collective health are becoming increasingly central, IBSA Italy has embarked on a renovation journey of its Lodi headquarters with the antares project.
An ambitious initiative supported by a 15-million-euro investment that reflects the company's commitment to developing workspaces designed to preserve and celebrate the uniqueness of every employee.
In this interview Daria Catellani, Head of Human Resources of IBSA Italy, highlights how a functional and stimulating environment is key to attracting and retaining talent.
From the earliest stages, antares was designed with a focus on comfort and functionality, incorporating innovative solutions to improve acoustics, lighting and furniture ergonomics. These spaces are designed to facilitate communication and networking, essential for a dynamic and inclusive work environment.

With the completion of the new headquarters, a commitment is demonstrated not only towards growth and innovation but also towards the well-being of its employees, emphasizing the importance of a work environment that is both welcoming and stimulating.
In this latest talk, Gianni Lembo and Marina Bassi, purchasing managers for IBSA Italy, offer an in-depth look at the evolution of the antares Project, which began in 2021. Originating from an idea of the former CEO, the project aims to renew the company's image by aligning it with its growth and expansion.
Gianni Lembo explains how antares was designed to support not only the movement of goods, but also to manage a growing and increasingly specialized workforce. Marina Bassi underscores IBSA's commitment to sustainability, highlighting major investments in the transition to an all-electric company car fleet and the installation of twenty electric vehicle charging points, demonstrating a strong commitment to a greener future.
This project not only reinforces IBSA's presence as an innovative leader in the industry, but also underscores the company's commitment to sustainable and responsible practices.
Francesca Biafora - Sr Engineering and Maintenance Manager - offers an in-depth look at antares. From the early stages of the project development, the Technical Services team navigated through conceptual design and feasibility studies and executive plans, advancing through to the specifications and construction project currently underway. The architectural and interior design decisions have been strongly inspired by IBSA's corporate identity, aiming to create welcoming and comfortable environments for everyone. Biafora emphasizes the deep commitment and gratitude of her team in participating in the creation of a facility that promises to be not only functional but also representative of IBSA's values in Italy and worldwide.
In this interview Matteo Romani - HSE Manager at IBSA Italy - highlights the crucial role of safety and collaboration at the antares construction site. The main challenge lies in managing the interactions between the construction site and ongoing business operations. Romani emphasizes the importance of sharing a culture of safety to achieve high standards, demonstrating IBSA's commitment to creating a space that combines innovation, functionality, and care for employees.
antares is based on three fundamental pillars that reflect the company's holistic vision of well-being and respect for the environment: Innovation, Beauty, and Sustainability. These principles are not just guidelines for the renovation of the headquarters, but represent the embodiment of IBSA's values and its commitment to people, scientific progress, and the environment.
Innovation: Through approaches focused on the overall well-being and adapted to evolving and versatile working conditions, the space is designed to dynamically respond to contemporary work needs. Environments are optimized for functionality, with open spaces that increase accessory areas for support to daily functions by 40%, equipped with panels for sound insulation, and an advanced lighting system with LED lamps for reduced environmental impact.
Beauty: In the concept of the new headquarters, particular attention was paid to the harmony between aesthetics and practicality, privileging the well-being of those who work there. This philosophy is the guideline for the realization of IBSA's workspaces and offices, where design and comfort blend to create stimulating and welcoming environments.
Sustainability: The project is built on a key principle for IBSA: transforming what already exists to find better solutions. Through a complete overhaul of spaces, both interior and exterior, the structure emerges at the forefront of energy efficiency and environmental standards, marking a significant progress that reflects the company's evolution and growth over recent years.
The new IBSA Italy headquarters also represents an investment for the enhancement of the territory, with the creation of a hub for doctors, suppliers, professionals, and employees, offering an inclusive environment where everyone will find their own space and the resources they need. It ultimately symbolizes IBSA's commitment to being pioneers not only in the development of quality pharmaceutical solutions but also in creating a work environment that reflects the company's values of care, innovation, and respect for the environment and the people.
