  • Business conduct

Environmental Achievements

  • Ended all fluor-containing production by the end of 2024.
  • Approximately 90% of portable firefighting agents transitioned to FFX technology (fluorine-free).
  • Committed to manufacturing and commercialising only 100% fluor-free fire extinguishing products by the end of 2024.
  • Implemented measures to ensure efficient use of water resources, minimizing water usage.

Social Achievements

  • Implemented a telework policy allowing up to two days a week remote work.
  • Implemented flexible working hours for office workers.
  • Financial support and planned active participation in programs of Vzw Pinocchio (NGO supporting burn-injured children).

Governance Achievements

  • Established a Supplier Code of Conduct outlining ethical, environmental, and social standards for all business partners.
  • Implemented an open-door policy and confidential reporting channels for whistleblowers.

Climate Goals & Targets

Medium-term Goals:
  • Reduce absolute Scope 1 & 2 emissions by 40% by 2030 (from a 2023 base year).
  • Consume 100% renewable energy by 2030.
  • Achieve a 20% increase in average training hours per employee by 2030 (compared to 2020).
  • Conduct three supplier audits each year to monitor compliance and ensure sustainability due diligence.
  • Have 50% of strategic suppliers sign the Supplier Code of Conduct.
Short-term Goals:
  • Enhance and expand data collection for all emission scopes in 2025.
  • 100% implementation of rainwater recuperation systems by 2026.
  • Improved communication of reporting channels by end of 2024.
  • Fully defining and implementing different pay grade levels to ensure fair payment by mid-2025.
  • Fully implementing and communicating the new training programme policy by the end of 2024.

Environmental Challenges

  • Addressing environmental concerns associated with chemicals containing fluor.
  • Transitioning large-scale, fixed firefighting systems to environmentally friendly options.
  • High employee turnover rate in 2023 (linked to office closure, reorganization, and retirements).
  • Improving data quality for certain metrics (e.g., mobility data).
Mitigation Strategies
  • Developed FFX® and FFC® technologies as fluorine-free alternatives.
  • Collaborating with customers to facilitate the transition to new technologies.
  • Implementing measures to improve employee well-being and retention (e.g., telework, flexible hours, well-being assessments).
  • Enhancing data collection methods to improve data quality.
