Therefore, the ESG principles (Environmental, Social, and Governance) are an integral part of our business practice. This means that we strive to create a positive effect on the society that we are a part of.
Our commitment to society and the environment
CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) is a central part of our corporate culture, DNA, and self-understanding. We understand that the success of our company is closely connected to what we contribute to society. Therefore, we have implemented a number of CSR initiatives that strengthen our social and environmental footprint.

Reduction of how we affect the climate via CO2 reporting

In connection with the report, we thoroughly analyse our activities in order to identify areas where we can reduce our impact on the climate
Green investments
We are dedicated to implementing green initiatives that reduce our CO2 emission. By investing in energy-efficient technologies, furthering sustainable transport, and reducing the amount of waste, we strive to create a more sustainable supply chain and contribute to a cleaner and greener future.
Transparency and inspiration

We therefore share our CO2 reports and progress publicly, so that our stakeholders and other interested individuals can see and keep track of our efforts to reduce our climate impact. We fully intend to become a leading player within the field of CO2 reporting and thereby lead by example so that other companies follow suit.
