Cutting-edge success: Polvanera’s green tech leap

About the client

Nestled in limestone caves, eight meters below the Puglia plains, Polvanera is a winery unlike any other. Filippo Cassano’s (founder of Polvanera) passion for his business thrives amidst ancient vineyards, dry stone walls, and aging oak barrels. But Polvanera isn’t content with tradition alone. It yearns to be a pioneer, not just in winemaking, but in sustainability.

The challenge

Polvanera initiated an ambitious project focused on transitioning to green technology. Its aim was to upgrade the winery, improve its environmental footprint, and raise awareness for regional Primitivo wine and other native grape varieties. Through this shift to green technology, the Polvanera team aimed to elevate its business while also highlighting the wines from Puglia. By merging tradition with technological advancements, its goal was to achieve the best possible outcome for the company and its customers. 


The solution

Recognising the crucial role green technology would play, Polvanera identified an electric zero-impact viticulture robotic solution as a key enabler. It partnered with BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions, a trusted name in agricultural finance, for its expertise and customised financing solutions. Impressed by BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions’ asset management support, tailored financing plan, and swift execution, Polvanera capitalised on government subsidies for technological innovation. This dynamic collaboration facilitated the acquisition of the advanced robot, paving the way for Polvanera’s green transformation. 

“The vast knowledge and experience that BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions has of the agricultural industry saw us secure the finance we needed quickly and efficiently.  Its support and guidance enabled us to not only source the best equipment for our business and ambition, but to help our long-term sustainability objectives.”
