Our sustainability commitment
At Riwal we consider sustainability as one of our pillars. Our products and services are used in many sectors, including construction, installation technology, maintenance, industry and logistics. We therefore see an important role for Riwal in the transition to a climate-neutral and healthy living environment. We are committed to people’s health and improving the natural environment.
We want to play our part in achieving the relevant Sustainable Development Goals set by the UN Member States, as part of the 2030 agenda for Sustainable Development. They target solutions for poverty, gender inequality, and climate change. Starting in 2019, we thus decided to focus our efforts and target settings on some of these goals.
Lifting sustainability
Our business activities positively and negatively impact the environment and society.
Thus, taking steps to enhance our positive impacts while mitigating negative ones is the foundation of
our sustainability strategy. We aim to provide the best customer experience and to adopt a more sustainable way of working in the supply chain.
Rental companies have the technical, logistical, legal and commercial expertise to help their customers comply with sustainability requirements related to equipment, resulting in an overall more sustainable life cycle of the equipment. By having a customer-centric approach, our way of operating and making decisions focuses on customer demand and expectations.
Sustainable Procurement
On top of making our own operations and sourcing decisions more sustainable, we encourage the market to innovate and deliver sustainable products or services. Our suppliers play a significant role in achieving our objectives. We expect our current and future partners to follow the latest compliance requirements and adhere to similar values we work with, such as encouraging diversity in the workforce and investing in environment-friendly technology.
