The end products shipped to our customers are packaged in recyclable materials. All legal obligations and the guidelines of the OVAM (Public Waste Agency of Flanders) are followed up and implemented by the environmental coordinator. This results in an annual environmental report that must also be submitted to OVAM. In addition, an annual action plan is drawn up by the graphic Belgian professional federation Febelgra with the aim of reducing the amount of packaging. These guidelines are followed by Group Joos, and this is also reported annually to Febelgra. We actively promote the use of paper from responsibly managed forests and have FSC and PEFC certificates in that context . The current Group Joos environmental permit is valid until 2030. Based on a sense of responsibility and respect for the environment, the company commits itself to minimize this impact, in particular on the activities of the group, by: - comply with regional environmental legislation that applies to the activities of the companies within the group; - to continuously monitor and where possible improve the activities that have the greatest impact on the environment, and which are determined for each site by means of an environmental aspect analysis; - het nemen van preventieve en corrigerende maatregelen om zo mogelijke verontreinigingen of afwijkingen te voorkomen; - zorgzaam om te gaan met energie, grondstoffen en gevaarlijke stoffen door het gebruik ervan te monitoren en waar mogelijk bij te sturen in functie van de technologische evolutie in de grafische sector.
