A foundation of lowering the environmental impact

We are working on reducing our upstream emissions, which means our products come with a reduced carbon footprint. Where reasonable, we manufacture and distribute local for local.

A selection of our activities and guiding principles:

We request our supply base to adhere to the Code of Business Conduct for Business Partners¹⁾.
The Carbon Footprint is a criterion of our sourcing decisions. We drive suppliers to register at CDP²⁾ and SBTi³⁾ and to define CO₂ reduction targets.

Contributing to reduced upstream emissions

Where reasonable, we manufacture and distribute local for local, which helps reduce your carbon footprint in logistics in most cases.

A selection of our activities and guiding principles:

Local sourcing, wherever reasonable, reduces transportation across the globe.
Avoid air freight whenever possible. Unplanned air freight must be reported and approved.
We use multi-use packaging whenever suitable.

Forward-thinking approaches contributing to a reduced carbon footprint

We continuously improve our production process to increase energy efficiency, utilizing renewable energy sources and promoting green electricity. This helps reduce the carbon footprint of our products.

Levers reducing CO₂ in production:

Energy Efficiency: Boosting energy efficiency at our locations
Own reneweable energy: Generating power in-house from renewable sources
Green Electricity: Increasing the proportion of green electricity purchased
Ban fossil fuels: Replace fossil fuels where reasonably possible
