Sustainability pillars

We improve energy efficiency across our facilities and transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Development initiatives focus on reducing energy use in board production and coating.

We evaluate and re-engineer products using lower-carbon raw materials and collaborate with suppliers to reduce upstream emissions across our value chain.

We improve process efficiency and work with research institutions and industry partners to convert production waste and end-of-life materials into new raw materials.

We expand closed-loop water reuse systems and implement technical solutions to reduce wastewater from manufacturing.

We explore advanced cleaning and process technologies to reduce reliance on potable water in our factories.

We partner with startups, universities, research institutes, and industry peers to process production waste and end-of-life materials into alternative products or raw material for Swisspearl and other manufacturers.

We promote continuous safety improvement across our operations, including structured safety programs and annual safety initiatives at our facilities. Training, behavioral awareness, and best-practice sharing strengthen safe working environments.

We foster an open and supportive workplace culture through dialogue with employees and actions informed by their feedback.

Equal opportunity is fundamental to Swisspearl. We promote diversity and maintain zero tolerance for discrimination in alignment with our Human Rights Policy.

We comply with applicable labor laws and oppose forced labor, modern slavery, and human trafficking. We also support safe product handling by providing clear installation guidance and safety documentation.

We implement governance tools, procedures, and training programs to ensure Swisspearl values, codes of conduct, and safety standards are consistently applied across the organization. Ongoing employee training and internal systems support accountability and compliance.

We align our greenhouse gas inventory with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) requirements and follow its structured framework for target setting, validation, emissions reporting, and progress tracking. This approach supports emissions reductions consistent with the Paris Agreement’s 1.5 °C ambition.
