Committed to sustainability For more than a decade, Quadient has been actively building a culture that acts ethically and responsibly, offers innovative, sustainable solutions, and limits our company’s impact on the environment. Our environmental policy and practices aim to protect, conserve, and sustain natural resources in harmony with our people, our customers and the communities where we live and operate. Sustainable design & development Our products are designed to minimize environmental impact throughout their life cycle. We give careful consideration to energy efficiency, use of hazardous substances, longevity, recyclability, modularity and the upgradability of our products. The high level of sustainability and reliability of the parts and components we employ enables us to adhere to the principles of a circular economy. This virtuous loop promotes the repair, re-use and eventual recycling of materials rather than disposal. To that end, we have incorporated strict eco design rules into our design and development processes. Responsible procurement We are committed to responsible procurement and abide by applicable regulations and international standards. As part of this commitment, we have zero tolerance for modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour or child labour within our supply chains. We require our suppliers and contractors to treat their employees fairly, not to expose them to unsafe working conditions, or in any way force them to work under slavery conditions. We demand that our tier 1 and tier 2 suppliers be ISO 14001 certified and take measures to improve their environmental performance. These requirements are communicated through our Suppliers’ Code of Conduct and verification of conformance is performed on a regular basis through spot checks, questionnaires, supplier visits, reporting and on-site audits. Responsible manufacturing We are committed to manufacturing and assembling our products to the highest industry standards, respecting responsible environmental practices. We continuously look for ways to improve energy efficiency, lower our greenhouse gas emissions, and minimize water consumption and landfill waste. As a responsible producer of hardware products, commit to our customers that every product shipped will contain the maximum possible percentage of re-used components with no diminished performance.
