Sustainability means being aware that every choice you make to satisfy a present need will have an effect in the future.

For companies, sustainability means taking into account the environmental, social and economic impacts of their activities.

Consumers today are more aware and are increasingly seeking information about companies and their social and environmental commitments and their contribution to sustainability also depends on the products and services they use.

In fact, consumers prefer companies that are environmentally and socially responsible and committed to increasing their sustainability.

Therefore, being an environmentally and socially sustainable company generates profit and this represents a major competitive advantage.

Using resources in a sustainable and responsible way is a very important factor for environmental sustainability.

Being efficient in the use of resources also means cost reduction:

• • The costs of materials and raw materials account on average for 40% of a company’s production costs.
  • Targeted investments in resource efficiency therefore payoff.
  • In the process of resource efficiency, the company can save on materials and costs while remaining competitive and thrifty in resources.
  • Resource efficiency consulting programme.
