Hovmand’s sustainability policy.

We are always guided by our four values; ambitious, innovative, respectful, and compassionate. 

We want to contribute to create a more sustainable future. And we want to leave the world in better shape for future generations. 

To us, sustainability is the desire to manage our business operations with respect to the earth’s limited resources, create products that make a positive impact on our customers’ well-being, and manage a healthy company where employees thrive. 

Starting point

We participated in the program “Klimaklar Produktionsvirksomhed” (in English: Climate Ready Production Company) offered by The Confederation of Danish Industry to get an overview of our carbon emissions. The program gave us the knowledge and tools necessary to calculate Hovmand’s carbon emissions and subsequently set reduction targets.

To achieve our sustainability goals, we have defined and planned a range of initiatives, which are structured according to ESG standards (Environmental, Social, and Governance). 

Focus areas

Søren Hovmand, CEO

At Hovmand, we wish to be a frontrunner within the production industry and set ambitious sustainability goals that force us to rethink how we currently do business. This is manifested in three distinct focus areas: 

 

  1. Decrease CO2 emissions
  2. Provide an innovative and inclusive workplace
  3. Drive change towards safer and more ergonomic workflows 
     

 

Below, we show our journey towards becoming more sustainable. We illustrate the concrete ESG initiatives we have completed so far and will continually update you when we have implemented more.
