We strive to address the entire Interacoustics product lifecycle – from the supply of components to end of life of products. This will help us, and our customers, reach our sustainability objectives.
Enhancing our environmental performance
Interacoustics is environmentally certified according to ISO 14001. Our Environmental Management System specifies objectives and measures for our environmental performance and contributes to our environmental pillar of sustainability.
The new ISO 14001 certified environmental management system is a great tool for Interacoustics to translate our passion for doing something for the environment into effective actions that will actually make a difference.
Building sustainability into the design
To reduce the environmental and climate impact of our products, we have integrated environmental considerations into our product design process.
We consider:
In this way, we benefit from innovation and new technology and can take a strategic and considered approach to product sustainability.
In our main production, we use cardboard boxes that are made from FSC or recycled resources. The tape used for closing the boxes is made from 100% recycled plastic.
Furthermore, we have introduced packaging materials that are more sustainable:
In 2022, we reduced plastic bags shipped with products by 10% compared to 2021. We expect that this will be reduced even further in 2023.
