    DOING BUSINESS RESPONSIBLY

    As we grow, it is essential we do so responsibly. Our strong governance, ethics and compliance approach ensures that doing the right thing underpins everything we do, both within our direct business and global value chain, so that we remain a trusted and transparent partner to our stakeholders.

    Our 2030 Goals

    Beyond our direct business, we are committed to raising environmental and ethical standards across our supply chain through our responsible procurement approach and ESG supplier action plan. We've build ESG-related targets into our employee rewards programme across all levels and geographies, and evaluate our suppliers against our high ethical and environmental standards too.

    Our 2030 Actions

    Our supply chain networks are where we have the greatest opportunity for change - from offering sustainable product and service solutions, to optimising our logistics networks and working to ensure a responsible supply chain and procurement practices.

    Promoting a circular supply chain

    To help increase the reuse of packaging in our supply chain, we are replacing wooden and cardboard packaging pallets with reusable, returnable eco-totes for product movements between our European sites. Eco-tores have a longer life than wooden pallets which need to be repaired more frequently.

    Diversifying our supply chain

    We believe that promoting diversity and inclusion within our business and across our value chain leads to greater innovation and better decision making. It also ensures we can recruit and retain top talent to our industry. We have set specific diversity targets to ensure our team reflects the communities we serve by working towards 40% of our leaders being women, and 25% ethnically diverse by 2030.
