One of Scandinavia’s biggest investment banks, the Norwegian Storebrand Bank, recently named Coloplast the most sustainable company in the healthcare industry.
In their latest rating of healthcare companies, the Norwegian financial services company, Storebrand, recognized Coloplast’s social, environmental and ethical performance. Through this ranking we have earned the prestigious Best in Class mandate.
“It’s a great honour for us to receive an award like this,” says Jeppe Kromann Haarsted, Corporate Responsibility Manager, Coloplast. “The ‘Best in Class’ status proves that we were right to invest in Corporate Responsibility and I’m happy that our efforts are noticed by the outside world.”
The rating is based on an analysis of 30 global healthcare companies. Companies are rated on their approach to health and safety and on environmental and ethical issues.
According to Storebrand, Coloplast demonstrates best practice through our responsible supply chain management programme, our anti-corruption policy, our reduction in injury rates, our phthalate policy, and our waste reduction.
Previous winners of the award – in the healthcare industry and in others - include Adidas, Mærsk, Nike, Novo Nordisk and Novozymes.
