mediterranean c. c. l must far enter far abdul karim drift along with exploring modern lifestyles and the mediterranean meeting people on hearing their dreams ready to eat journey this week on d. w. ah, italy heads to the poles and europe's financial markets watch with trepidation. afar right populous coalition is set to head the next government with promises of more tax cuts and deficit spending. also on our show, we'll see how one fashion brand is bringing manufacturing back to germany. as part of a sustainability push band could also could an alternative

to vine or be the beginning of a more sustainable l. pete. without compromising for quality for walking to the show, i'm seeing fiercely in berlin. all of europe is watching as italy elect a new parliament on sunday. paul suggest the far right coalition aligned with georgia, maloney and her brothers of italy is likely to take office is expected to make tax cuts and deficit spending a priority over economic reforms. and for european financial markets, that's a bit of a concern. building luxury boats is particularly expensive right now. that's because the costs of raw materials and energy are rising here too. in the central italian region of omega. they're also the typical italian problems that have never changed, complains, co owner giovanni calico, even though so many pass politicians promised they would look at, grew under you. but i believe all entrepreneurs want to essential things. the prima . the 1st is lower and fair taxes. it bossa google lexical,

and the 2nd is less bureaucracy. michelle godson, this is exactly what the far right populous party brothers of italy promises to do if it comes into power. a promise that lures medium size entrepreneurs to lean towards party leader ga milanni here. and the only i region the steel industry as a long tradition, a shy spit charlie tedney, is one of italy's largest steel mills. because of rising gas and electricity costs, the plants sent 400 of its more than 2000 employees home last week. they'll receive reduced wages until things get better. good. okay, beautiful. me. good. i think we need to structural reforms like other european countries, such as france, germany and britain. this would be a real help to us, both for citizens and for companies that cannot get ahead. rather than having the usual bonuses, i think it's important to simpleton. problems existed in the italian steel industry

long before the war and ukraine began and energy prices rose. still the workers from the steel mill expect the new government to do more for the economy and their livelihoods. angelica donati is president of until giovanni, that's part of the national association of italian construction firms. she joins me now from rome. angelica welcome to the show. describe for our viewers, the kinds of difficulties that your industry is facing. in particular, we are very much struggling with rising cost cause i've been right in the end of 2020 because after the 1st wave of the 19th and then i saw a surgeon inflation in italy and l slash. but since before the summer, really, since the wiring crane started, we've seen an increasingly strong inflation and pressure on costs in our sector. so just to me today,

prices are cost of that 35 percent across the board. so although the kind of government put in measures before the summer to compensate construction brands for these, this completely unpredictable price increase of the past year is not enough anyway because they've gone up in more so yeah it's, it's a pretty difficult situation right now in a way those energy calls, obviously being seen all across europe. right now. what 2 businesses in italy in particular want from a new government, what is the top of their wish list? well, we want strong measures to be put in place to counter the rising cost. yes, they are, as you said, across all of your comments, but in our sector in the construction sector, in other countries, there's automatic revisions. mechanisms which compensate contractors for cost increases. we don't have that in italy and we want that. we need that because we need to be able to plan and we go to work. all of the emergency measures that were put in place, expire the end of the year, 2 and a half months,

obviously. and that makes it very difficult to plan. the long term and we need a long term vision, but not just our companies. i come to, you needs a long term vision. i think that is what we're asking. first and foremost, whoever becomes our next prime minister needs to think in the long term, just something that historically we've not been very good at. all polls suggest that the next government will be led by georgia, maloney, would you find that long term vision, and those particular measures that businesses need in such a government? how do you see it? i mean, it really depends on what a, what she or whoever is appointed as, as prime minister by the winning coalition puts in place and decide because, you know, campaigning finishes on the day of those. and then, and then you have to spring into action. in the past, we've had a lot of promises and it's been very hard to whoever stepped into power to actually act on them because your acquisition is so complex. and so we would expect when we

would hope that whoever becomes prime minister put their money where their mouth and puts in place as a form that we desperately need starting from simplifying all the processes. simplifying our bureaucracy, simplifying our very complex tax system, making it easier for, for businesses to work because it really is one of the leading exporters in the world, leading manufacturers in europe. despite all the competitions we have. if we had a simpler system, we would be able to do much better and we're ready to pretty well. also the 3rd largest economy in the u. back. what happens? what happens? i'm sorry, let me start over. financial markets are looking at this election and they're saying this is a big concern for italy as an investment destination, especially because it is one of your largest economies that could be devastating. ultimately, how do you answer the, how do you look at that? you've been talking about tax cuts and eroding bureaucracy, but what do you look at when people say the very nature of italy as an investment

destination could be in danger? here? i would, i mean, it's a loaded question that's probably best for book on it. but i mean, i would say that i would imagine that political rhetoric in pain should get way to approach to actually running the country. and i think we've seen this over and over again. there are checks and balances in place and italy is very friendly in the center of the european union. i don't think anybody any longer questioning it so i would hope and expect that the next government will continue along the lines of being a central player in the you and making sure the country is attracting investment because, you know, we absolutely need a cap because ours are for now. that was a joke, donati, with the national association of a tiny construction firms, angelica thank you very much. thank you. on

staying in europe for cheap, mainstream clothing like blue jeans. major european brands typically rely on factories in asia. labor's cheaper there and scale pushes down overall prices of some labels are now expensive. experimenting with other set ups like the brand cna, which wants to see if a more technical and sustainable production process in germany might actually be more cost efficient. lasers give these genes from germany, a warn look without relying on chemicals. they're made by clothing companies, cna, at its factory and mention plaid back production is high tech work that would need many people as handled mostly by machine. only 100 seamstresses work here. the plan is to produce $800000.00 genes a year using green solar and wind energy. there, while again, we want to produce again ourselves learning in the process and benefiting from the

short delivery routes. from the goods come directly from europe and from renewable energy that enable us to produce without creating emissions. feel green in blue is the motto here. thanks to a new recycling based washing process. only 10 leaders are needed prepare instead of the typical 90. this is made possible by state of the art technology. the company also uses automatic sewing machines, which allow prices to remain competitive. leave them a few problems with this machine, we can so on about 1000 pockets a day completely. automatically, the worker only inserts the pockets in factories in asia. this is done by up to 4 people and has to be sewn on by hand. it takes longer and it's not as precise. so in terms of quality, this machine makes it as precise as possible. cna hopes of factory will afford them more flexibility. the company can deliver missing sizes to stores more quickly.

this is because a transport out from mentioned glad back to the rest of europe are relatively short . the factory is a testing ground for sustainability. denham fabric is bleached using laser technology. those running it intend to pull lessons learned here to good use. i just listened, but we want to take all the knowledge we gather here to other production sites, including in asia. we want to raise the standards there as well. so he band, hence money from the n g o in costa appreciates the move towards sustainable high tech production. but he thinks there are other issues that need to be addressed to does in some group. but while they're a member of the textile alliance, they are really visible in core issues like a living wage or using sustainable cotton not just sang bomb. walcott made nafrica, there's definitely more to do with lexia. the is definitely female couldn't for now, cna will continue to produce the majority of its clothing and asian factories.

whether it expands operations in germany depends on the success of the mentioned. glad back factory and genes just like these and on the subject of sustainability, the popularity of vinyl records has been growing again in recent years. but making them uses a lot of crude oil products. now there's an alternative material that could make music sound even sweeter. oh, it looks like a vinyl record. sounds like a vinyl record, but this lp is made using sugar. the sweet sounds emanating from the turntable r nor conical turns up to vinyl. currently vinyl records are produced using polyvinyl, chloride, or p v. c. this material is derived from fossil fuels on the finished record can contain toxic additives such as carbon black and heavy metals. the substance that is not the music. u. k based evolution music says it's disks are much more environmentally friendly. i'm producing them requires no change to record pressing

plants, existing machinery, or production processes. c, e o mark harry says the records can help de carbonized the industry. so 4 years warranty. i'm we, we started with a sugar based by a polymer. we found organic phyllis and organic miles to batch. so we go unique recipe. but we are an hour and a company what we carry on with iterations of our day to improve it as we go forward. final sales have been rising steadily since 2006. this despite to popularity in instant access of digital media and streaming sites such as google and spotify. in 2020 lp records ad. so cds for the 1st time since the 1980s in the us final sales or 22 percent in the 1st half of this year. many music fans where that vinyl has a richer sound, along with bigger and more appealing cover art, and the sheer joy being able to hold a physical copy. the connection is probably more emotional than sonic.

the only difference between by a plastic and vital records right now is a little bit of surface noise between the tracks. which for record fans is usually part of the appeal. that's it for now. we'll be back in a few hours with more. in the meantime, check us out a line t w dot com slash business. i'm seeing beardsley watching is the end of the pandemic in site. we show what it could look like. return to normal and we visit those who are finding it difficult. he sees his successes in weekly coping 19 special
