At Lyreco Intersafe, we are aware that taking action to contribute to the protection of our planet and people requires the commitment of everyone and we must act to drive progress in sustainability with our entire supply chain. Each year, we improve our long-term involvement in sustainability aiming at strengthening our commitment toward more responsible practices and ensuring we work with partners who, at least, share our concerns and ambitions.
Delivering excellence is not only about top-quality products and services, it is about ensuring that every action we take is consistent with our sustainability ambitions and meets our customers’ expectations:
- Providing products that contribute to protecting the planet and its people
- Ensuring ethics and compliance requirements are met wherever our suppliers, manufacturers, and partners operate
- Minimising packaging
- Developing sustainable processes, from ordering and delivery to product end-of-life
- Providing employee excellence wherever we operate
- Supporting education around the world
Our sustainability strategy covers all our activities and their impact on the planet and its people. We are also committed to communicating our progress transparently.
