Our winning entry for the Sustainability award highlighted our accomplishments so far in reducing our environmental impact, improving our social responsibility and enhancing our governance practices which recently led to us achieving the EcoVadis Silver Rating. It also demonstrated how we have integrated sustainability into our next five-year strategic plan, which aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The SDGs are a set of 17 global goals that aim to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure peace and prosperity for all by 2030. Read more about Sustainability at Bournes.
