In the light of the enormous environmental, social and governance hurdles ahead, Insulcon has made a profound and ambitious commitment to sustainability. This commitment was inspired by a very clear decision: to place ESG at the heart of our business process. We firmly believe that safeguarding the planet, our workforce, and our business is not only vital for the company's success but also a collective obligation shared by all within the Insulcon community.
We are committed to ensuring that ESG matters are considered and supported throughout the group, serving the best interests of all those impacted within our company, including customers, suppliers, employees, shareholders and the communities we live in.
ESG is a journey and there's still a long way to go. As we are moving forward, our ambition increases and new challenges present themselves along the way. But we are convinced: together, we (can) make a difference.
Insulcon's board has direct oversight of the company’s environmental, social and governance (ESG) strategy and commitments. Our approach to sustainability is key to the company successfully executing its strategy and as such is viewed as a core responsibility of the entire Board and Senior Management.
Delivering ESG performance is a shared responsibility of all Insulcon and IPCOM group companies and business units, where each has ESG champions, that work together with the corporate ESG team to implement the most efficient pathways to reaching our shared goals.
We value a continuous dialogue with our stakeholders, to understand and meet their expectations, and maximize our positive impact on society.
We aim to increase our positive impact on society and environment by maximizing the positive sustainability impact of our products and minimizing our negative operational impact.
We are committed to conducting our business in a way that demonstrates our dedication to global environmental sustainability.
This commitment is reflected in the following priorities:
Each of the IPCOM group companies, where Insulcon is part of, is responsible for establishing, monitoring and adjusting sustainability initiatives that are aligned with IPCOM’s environmental sustainability priorities.
We recognize that our operations and supply chains touch the lives of countless individuals around the world. We believe that every person associated with our business, whether directly employed by us, working within our supply chains, or part of the communities in which we operate, deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.
Our commitment to human rights and labour standards is foundational to our values and our business practices.
We to strive to make progress by:
Insulcon's commitment to strong corporate governance, compliance and ethical conduct is rooted in our core values and sets the foundation for our day-to-day business operations.
Driven by our management team and Board of Directors, this commitment is ingrained in our culture and all Insulcon group colleagues understand the expectation to uphold our values and adhere to policies and practices promoting fair, ethical and honest business dealings, robust governance, and compliance with applicable laws.
These areas are a priority as we believe that our success depends upon a relation of trust and professionalism with our main stakeholders, namely our employees, commercial partners, shareholders, government authorities and the general public. Our unwavering commitment to honesty and integrity, and to doing business the right way, is critical to who we are as a company.
Insulcon is committed to conducting business with the highest standards of ethics, integrity, and social responsibility. We believe that our suppliers play a crucial role in helping us achieve this goal. We are committed to working with suppliers who operate responsibly and share our dedication to environmental & sustainability standards. Conducting supply chain due diligence is an important part of our overall sustainability efforts.
We expect our key suppliers to acknowledge and sign our Supplier Code of Conduct and to complete an annual self-assessment questionnaire, in order to verify their policies, commitment and initiatives.
We believe that compliance with this code of conduct is essential to building a responsible and sustainable supply chain that benefits all stakeholders. We are committed to working with our suppliers to ensure that they meet the standards set forth in this code of conduct, and to continuously improve our collective environmental, social, and ethical performance.
