Sustainability
Environment
We are making progress in reducing our use of climate-intensive resources. We are now measuring our overall carbon footprint so that we can set reduction targets in the future. We want to keep environmental considerations at the forefront of our business strategy choices and are constantly looking for new opportunities to refine our processes.
Labor
It is a key priority for us to understand how we can improve our employees working experience. In 2023 we are conducting an employee survey to understand how our employees evaluate working at Van Hessen and what are the highest priority areas for improvement. We intend to improve the employee experience at both a global and local level with group and region-specific teams to address the priority topics identified by our valued team members.
Ethics
Van Hessen prides itself on a strong foundation of ethical business practices, which is reflected in our reputation throughout the industry. We are committed to common practices against corruption and unfair competition, including a whistleblower system.
Procurement
Over the past few years, we have expanded our raw material sourcing. We established new production locations all over the world, which enables a local sourcing model that improves the carbon footprint associated with transporting our product. We see local-for-local as an important part of our global strategy.
