Environmental Policy

Under the leadership of our environmental manager Sofia Edman, Pigment AB is committed to meeting the requirements of environmental legislation. Our commitment to environmental management is based on a firm determination not only to reduce our direct impact on the environment but also to pursue a sustainable business model that benefits both society and the economy.

Our environmental policy is based on the following core principles:

1. Energy and Resource Efficiency:
   We are committed to continuously seeking and implementing methods to improve our energy use and resource efficiency, support the use of renewable energy, and reduce our carbon footprint.
2. Digital Work Environment:
   Our ambition to reduce the use of paper products and promote digital work methods is a central part of our strategy to reduce our indirect environmental impact.
3. Recycling and Waste Management:
   By streamlining our waste management and recycling, we reduce our waste and support a circular economy.
4. Sustainable Purchasing and Suppliers:
   We are committed to integrating environmental considerations into our purchasing process and choosing suppliers who share our sustainability vision.
5. Education and Awareness:
   We invest resources to raise awareness of environmental issues among our employees and encourage initiatives that promote environmentally responsible behavior.
6. Travel Management:
   In order to reduce our environmental impact from travel, Pigment AB has adopted the following measures:
7. Improved Digital Communication:
   We prioritize the use of digital communication tools, such as video conferences and web meetings, to minimize the need for physical travel. This strategy is applied not only internally but also in our interactions with customers, suppliers, and other stakeholders.
8. Travel Policy:
   We have developed a travel policy that encourages environmentally friendly transportation options. For business trips, we encourage our employees to choose public transport, carpooling, or environmentally friendly vehicles where possible and practical.
9. Carbon Offset:
   For trips where physical presence is necessary and no environmentally friendly alternatives are available, we strive to offset the carbon emissions generated by investing in carbon offset projects or by contributing to initiatives that promote renewable energy and forestry.
10. Environmentally Conscious Event and Meeting Planning:
    When planning events and major meetings, we consider participants' travel routes and encourage shared transport solutions to minimize the number of trips.
11. Education and Awareness:
    We ensure that all staff are aware of our travel policy and the environmental impacts associated with travel. Through training programs and communication campaigns, we encourage responsible travel that supports our overall environmental goals.

Through an established framework for continuous improvement and pollution prevention, we commit to:

1. Identify and assess our environmental aspects and impacts to develop goals and actions that address these.
2. Conduct regular environmental audits and evaluations to ensure compliance with our environmental policy and continuously improve our environmental performance.
3. Actively seek and implement measures to reduce environmental risks and prevent pollution in all our areas of operation.

By following these principles and procedures, Pigment AB commits to taking environmental responsibility and continuously striving for improvements in our environmental performance and acting as a role model for sustainability.
