Sustainability is embedded into our strategy and throughout our organization. We apply our core company values, Honesty, Frugality and Courage, in our approach towards sustainability. We show courage in setting ambitious goals but at the same time we are honest about where we stand, acknowledge the challenges we face and what we can improve. We apply frugality by using resources efficiently and minimizing waste in our processes.

Our Sustainability Commitment

We provide products and services that contribute to good health, using responsible production methods and supporting climate action, while being a sponsor for inclusivity and transparency. We believe that sustainable growth is the only way to build a successful and responsible business for the benefit of future generations. With our robust sustainability agenda, we capture our commitment under the theme of Responsible for Tomorrow®.

We have established an overall sustainability framework, which encompasses an ambitious environmental, social and governance agenda which have been group into three pillars; Our Environment, Our People, and Our Business.

Our Environment


We take responsibility for our environmental impact and commit to continually improve our environmental performance. We focus our efforts on our operations, our supply chain and our products.

We have set science-based emissions reduction targets, and thereby joined leading companies around the world in setting targets in line with what climate science deems necessary to limit global warming to 1.5°C.  Our near-term (2030) and net-zero (2050) targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

Our efforts contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goal 12 on Responsible Consumption and Production and Goal 13 on Climate Action.
