Another successful edition of “A Chemist for a Day” has come to a close at our Albizzate site!

Over the course of two exciting weeks, we welcomed seven classes from the primary and secondary schools of Albizzate and Valdarno into our laboratories. A total of 123 students and 15 teachers took part in this immersive educational initiative, guided by three dedicated teams of Lamberti colleagues.

The program, built around the themes of matter, energy, and the environment, offered students a hands-on introduction to the world of chemistry.
Wearing lab coats, gloves, and goggles for the first time, the young participants entered the lab with wide eyes and curiosity. From timid beginnings with test tubes and pipettes to enthusiastic titrations, printing paste preparations, and slime creations—every experiment was a small adventure.

The initiative wasn’t just impactful for the students. Our colleagues, acting as mentors and science ambassadors, were deeply engaged.
They shared their expertise and passion, answered countless questions, and experienced the joy and responsibility of inspiring the next generation of scientists.

As always, the event was a two-way exchange of enthusiasm and emotion.
Preparing lessons and setting up labs requires time, imagination, and effort—but seeing the sparkle in the students’ eyes and the excitement in their voices makes it all worthwhile.

💙 A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this initiative possible once again. Together, we’re building stronger ties with our communities and nurturing future innovators—one experiment at a time.
