Sustainability based on sustainable values

For Emballator sustainability is based on the Group’s shared ambition of developing packaging solutions for future generations.

The goal is that a packaging from Emballator, either if it is made in plastic, tinplate, or aluminium, should be material optimized and recycled when it is no longer needed. Sustainability is given in all the companies within Emballator and is based on the values in the Green Bag.

Emballators Code of Conduct is the foundation for sustainability and permeates the whole business. From the health and safety of employees, to care for the environment and climate, and new product innovations. That sustainability and innovation belongs together, is something that the Emballator Group is focusing on.

Code of Conduct

The Emballator Code of Conduct contains the core values regarding sustainable development. Emballators Code of Conduct exists to emphasize the principles that determine the company’s way of doing business. It should be easy for employees, partners, suppliers, and customers to follow.

The Code of Conduct is developed together with Herenco, the owner of Emballator.

Emballator Code of Conduct

Values – The Green Bag

Herenco takes a long-term and responsible approach to its investments and has values which permeates all wholly owned companies in the group, as well as Emballator.

The Herenco way is simple, straight, and clear. Manifested in a forest-green bag from Småland, containing stones, pieces of wood and pinecones that represent the companies’ freedom to act outside the framework and find their own unique forms of expression.
