1. Fighting climate change

We started to analyze our carbon footprint in 2019 and we calculate this for our operations and for all our products. It is important for us to know our impact on the environment as it will give direction for future product development and will provide us with insights into what ways we can help our customers realize their sustainability goals.

Smart

2. Contributing to sustainable economy

The growing challenge of plastics in the environment means it is more urgent than ever to find more sustainable solutions. By 2030 we want to be at least 50% circular and in 2040 we aim to be 100% circular. In order to achieve that, we focus on having circular packaging, which is made entirely from non-virgin material and is fully recyclable or re-usable. Also, we will focus on sustainably sourced ingredients, minimizing our waste and maintaining water quality.

People

3. Caring for employees and people

At Chrysal we care about people. We create a caring workplace for our employees by considering their health and safety a high priority and our responsibility. We also focus on improving equality and diversity. Furthermore, we support local communities by contributing to local projects on health and education.

Positive environmental impact

4. Striving for a positive environmental impact

By fighting climate change and contributing to a sustainable economy, we eliminate any negative effects we have on the environment as a business. But we aim to take that one step further and also positively contribute to the environment we depend upon, by supporting biodiversity and enabling sustainable land & water use beyond our own operations.
