"At SmartXS, we embrace sustainability as an integral part of our mission. We are proud that our commitment to a better future is visible in every facet of our business. Our sustainability pledge includes:
Eco-friendly products: We strive to develop products that meet the highest standards of environmental friendliness. This includes reducing packaging waste, using recyclable and biodegradable materials and limiting harmful chemicals. Our biodegradable range is made from hemp and wheat straw, a waste product left over after harvesting wheat, among others. These eco-friendly alternatives to virgin plastics contribute to the fight against plastic pollution and highlight our commitment to a cleaner world.
Responsible packaging: We understand the importance of packaging for product protection and are committed to combining this with sustainability. Our packaging is carefully optimized for minimal environmental impact, with a focus on recycled materials and FSC® paper. We reduce CO2 emissions and energy consumption and support sustainable sourcing and production. The ink used is water-based.
Energy Efficiency: We are committed to optimizing our production facilities and switching to renewable energy sources whenever possible. Our goal is to reduce our carbon footprint and reduce our CO2 emissions.
Commitment to Suppliers: Our suppliers share our vision of ethics and sustainability. They support our Suppliers Code of Conduct ver2.1, which contains guidelines for human rights, working conditions and corporate social responsibility. We conduct regular audits to ensure compliance with these standards.
Transparency and honesty: We will always communicate openly and honestly about our sustainability efforts and progress. We will do our best to keep our customers, partners and stakeholders informed of our achievements and improvements.
Inclusiveness and equal opportunity: At SmartXS, we believe in diversity as a strength. We select our employees based on qualifications and do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, gender, age, and so on. Our work environment promotes equal opportunity and inclusion. Our ethics policy and access to an external confidential advisor support respectful relationships and a safe work environment.
Continuous Improvement: Sustainability is a journey and we are determined to continually strive for improvements. We will continue to innovate and explore new ways to reduce our impact on the environment.
At SmartXS, we believe that every positive initiative, no matter how small, can make a difference. We are determined to make a positive impact not only through our high-quality products, but also through our commitment to sustainability in every aspect of our business.
