SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS
12. RESPONSIBLE CONSUMPTION AND GOOD HEALTH AND
WELL-BEING
12.6 ENCOURAGE COMPANIES TO ADOPT
SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES AND INTEGRATE
SUSTAINABLE INFORMATION INTO THEIR
REPORTING CYCLE.
Actions taken:
• Since 2016 we have reported our own progress within sustainable progress
through the UN Global Compact Communication on Progress. We continue this practice to ensure transparency.
• Through our work with certifications such as The Nordic Swan Ecolabel
and FSC® we have had to make some adjustments to our products, in this
process it has been important for us to hold on to good partnerships with
our suppliers rather than changing partners for a more rapid process. For
many of our partners we have therefore entered a dialogue on improvement
processes for both raw materials and business practices to ensure we grow
stronger together.
12.7 PROMOTE PUBLIC PROCUREMENT PRACTICES
THAT ARE SUSTAINABLE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH
NATIONAL POLICIES AND PRIORITIES.
Actions taken:
• We have chosen to work with the Nordic Swan Ecolabel as it is the standard setting certification in Scandinavian building certification systems –
Both public and private. Furthermore our Indoor Air Comfort certification
ensures that our products meets the requirements from both national, Scandinavian and international systems such as DGNB, BREEAM, LEED, M1 etc.
12.8 PROMOTE UNIVERSAL UNDERSTANDING OF
SUSTAINABLE LIFESTYLES
Actions taken:
• We are incorporating our sustainable initiatives into our standard HORN
Academy material, to ensure that our external sales consultants have the right
knowledge to inform endconsumers about more sustainable alternatives.
