Better Solutions
Meeting the growing global market formhousehold appliances without increasing environmental impact requires us to further optimize product performance and make better use of resources:
- We create ever more efficient, highperformance appliances, which help consumers to live better lives, save money and reduce their environmental footprint.
- We will proactively contribute toward the circular economy by integrating a circular approach into our products and solutions.
- Our consumers can be reassured that we manage chemicals carefully and replace those that cause concern.
Better Company
We work continuously to be more resource efficient, and become a safer, diverse and more ethical company– both in our own operations and throughout our supply chain:
- We are reducing our own footprint by running efficient operations all around the world.
- We continue to build an ethical, diverse, inclusive and trusted company, where everyone impacted by our operations can feel confident that their rights are respected.
- Our products are to be made in the same way throughout our global supply chain – with respect for the people who made them and care for the environment.
Better Living
We aim to shape better and more sustainable living around the world by promoting better eating, better garment care and better home environments:
- By positively influencing how our products are used, we can reduce food waste, promote resource efficient food choices and nutrition, as well as enhance sustainable eating experiences.
