Arcadia Consulting

What Arcadia Consulting does

Arcadia Consulting s.r.l. is an Italian multi-discipline environmental and occupational health and safety consultancy, founded in 2000, headquartered in Lonate Pozzolo (Varese) with registered office in Milan, and operating with 11–50 employees on a €61,000 share-capital base. Its customer base spans industrial and manufacturing firms, IPPC/AIA-regulated facilities, food and beverage operators, waste management companies, and employers subject to D.Lgs. 81/2008 workplace-safety obligations — services are delivered and consumed entirely within Italy.

The firm's core technology is an in-house chemical and microbiological laboratory accredited under UNI CEI EN ISO/IEC 17025 (Accreditamento n. 01348 Testing), equipped with Phase Contrast Optical Microscopy (MOCF), FTIR spectroscopy, SEM, X-ray Diffractometry (DRX), Polarized Light Optical Microscopy (MOLP) and Surface Air System (SAS) sampling. The lab performs analyses on water (drinking, wastewater, surface, groundwater, swimming pool), waste, soil, asbestos-containing materials, atmospheric emissions and microbiological contamination matrices. Around this laboratory, the company has assembled a regulatory credential stack — ISO 9001:2015 quality management, D.Lgs. 195/2003 habilitation across all ATECO macrosectors, D.G.R. 2412/2011 accredited training operator status (n. 852), DM 14.05.96 Ministry of Health asbestos enrollment, and a D.Lgs. 231/2001 Organizational Model — that anchors both the consulting and the training revenue streams.

Revenue is generated through three integrated streams sold on a direct, project-based or per-test/per-participant basis: environmental and safety consulting (professional services engagements), accredited laboratory analysis (consumption-based per analysis or batch), and accredited training courses (per participant, delivered at the Lonate Pozzolo classrooms or client sites, including FAD distance learning). Distribution is direct-only — inbound via the company website, the Circolari Informative regulatory newsletter, and direct phone/email/WhatsApp contact through commercial lead Nicola Albé — with no e-commerce or self-serve channel. In August 2025 Arcadia entered the circular-economy vertical through the F.O.S.F.O.R.O. consortium, a €3.5M Regione Lombardia FESR 2021-2027 initiative led by A2A Ambiente that delivered €254,532.10 of direct financial support to the firm for phosphorus/nutrient recovery work.
