Environmental Insight & Policies

Attends design and manufacture general disposable medical devices for the health care market and undertake ethylene oxide sterilization of medical devices.

Attends will, by continuous improvements and prevention of pollution, work towards the vision of being a sustainable company.

To achieve this goal we:

  • Continually evaluate our suppliers environmental performance. Choose materials and products with known properties and low environmental impact and use them in an effective and economical manner.
  • When developing products and techniques, aim for properties that minimize the environmental impact of our products.
  • Minimize our use of energy and gradually convert to energy from renewable sources.
  • Use water effectively and sparsely. Protect water from pollution both under normal operating conditions and emergencies.
  • Minimize emissions to air mainly by choosing the right materials and technique. If this is inadequate, undertake effective treatment measures.
  • Minimize waste through choice of materials, product design and process technology. Sort waste for reuse and recycling when technically and economically viable.
  • Continually evaluate our shipping agents environmental performance. Minimize transportation volumes through optimized logistics.
  • Educate and motivate our co-workers in order to minimize the environmental impact of daily work.
  • Have an open attitude in environmental issues towards our customers, suppliers and other interested parties.
  • Meet or exceed the demands in environmental laws and regulations.
