Sustainability

Summanen Ltd is committed to sustainability in all its operations. Sustainability is an everyday task in all our organizational roles and is part of our values and operational strategy. It also involves influencing the surrounding community, environment, and stakeholders. Sustainability entails taking responsibility for the entire product lifecycle, from design to production, from service provision to recycling.

Social Sustainability - Ethics

Summanen Ltd adheres to all laws and regulations related to our operations. We expect our subcontractors to adhere to the same principles. Summanen Ltd engages in stakeholder dialogue and ensures that the prerequisites for social sustainability are met, intervening immediately if any deficiencies are observed.

 

Environmental Responsibility – Sustainable Development

We operate in accordance with environmental regulations and strive to minimize our environmental impact. In environmental matters, we pay attention to materials, energy, emissions, waste, and recycling. Our products are designed with a long life cycle, to be durable and timeless. Sustainable product solutions, their maintenance and refurbishment, as well as recycling, reduce our environmental impact.

We utilize both furniture and packaging material recycling services. In deliveries, we use as little packaging material as possible, and they are primarily recyclable materials. We adhere to producer responsibility and have organized it with Suomen Pakkauskierrätys Rinki Oy. We aim to centralize deliveries and optimize transport capacity.

In the procurement of wood materials, we require our subcontractors to use only certified materials sourced from legal sources and produced according to the principles of sustainable forest management. Material efficiency is improved through daily quality assurance.

Financial Responsibility

Financial responsibility encompasses compliance with legislation and official requirements related to our operations. To ensure the long-term viability and success of our company, we operate in an economically sustainable manner. We take care of profitability and competitiveness. Our company belongs to the highest credit rating category of Asiakastieto Oy's Rating Alfa and is also a Reliable Partner.
