Zotz? (pending)

Zotz are manufactured by G.B. Ambrosoli, located in Ronago, Italy.
Zotz are imported by Andre Prost Inc.
2015-02-14 - submitted website question:  http://www.andreprost.com/ambrosoli.html
My son is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts and must avoid food that is possibly cross-contaminated by nut dust.  Are Zotz manufactured on shared equipment or in a facility that handles any type of nut?  If yes, do the facilities segregate Zotz from possible cross-contamination?  Thanks for your reply.
