Sustainable procurement

Sustainable procurement is no longer optional. New directives, such as CSRD, are driving developments by requiring companies to account for and report their impact in a completely new way.

It's about having control over what do and what we buy, at every stage, and always striving to make better purchases.

What is sustainable procurement and why is it important?

Sustainable procurement is about considering environmental and social responsibility in every purchasing decision - not just cost. Choosing products, services and suppliers that drive your sustainability agenda forward. By reducing negative impacts on people and the environment, procurement becomes one of your most important tools to achieve your sustainability goals and contribute to a better future for all.

And the pressure is coming from all sides. New requirements for ESG reporting, sustainability targets from management and the board, expectations from customers and employees - all point to the same thing: sustainability is no longer something that can be treated as a sideline. It is a prerequisite for being involved at all.
