Corporate Responsibility Our decisions and the planning of our business activities to improve our strategy and the resulting services are guided by and based on our code of responsible business conduct and the main topics of our corporate responsibility strategy: • Human rights • Work practices • Environment • Fair business practices • Customer concerns • Community engagement and development Our corporate responsibility is a continuous process in which we improve our economic performance, adapt our business, and optimise the efficiency of production processes. This is crucial in addressing the challenges society faces: climate change, armed conflicts between countries, humanitarian crises, equal opportunities, and gender equality. It is part of HUBER+SUHNER’s corporate responsibility to contribute to a better world. We commit to the United Nations Global Compact and its ten principles, set science- based greenhouse gas emission targets, and publish our corporate emissions data of the HUBER+SUHNER Group, which contribute to climate change, via the CDP platform. We have set ambitious goals and regularly measure our performance and progress. The continuous path of corporate responsibility requires even more: Only when we combine our ambitious goals in terms of corporate responsibility with business activities at the management level and anchor them in every single employee can we continuously work towards becoming a truly sustainable company.

Environmental policy HUBER+SUHNER’s environmental policy: HUBER+SUHNER considers environmental protection to be an important and essential aspect of its social responsibility.

The company uses a life cycle perspective to influence the way its products and services are designed, manufactured, distributed, used, and disposed of. Accordingly, it applies the technique of life cycle analysis (LCA) to determine the environmental impacts throughout the value chain from raw material extraction to disposal or recycling. The company aims to continuously improve its environmental performance within the limits of its economic capacity. Prevention of pollution, sustainable use of resources, and climate protection HUBER+SUHNER designs its products and their respective production processes with the aim of using raw and auxiliary materials as well as energy and water as efficiently as possible. We also aim to avoid air and water pollution and minimise the use and disposal of toxic and hazardous chemicals.

The company is committed to continuously and significantly reducing its greenhouse gas emissions in line with the Paris Climate Agreement by improving energy efficiency and increasing the procurement of energy from renewable sources.
