Sustainability in sugar production

The future?
We’re tackling it

For us, sustainability is more than just a trend: It’s part of our identity. Since 1870, we have focused on regionality in sugar production, using locally grown sugar beets as a renewable raw material. Today, the issue is more important than ever.

Our vision & mission for sustainability

Our planet is facing great challenges. As one of Europe’s leading sugar manufacturers, we accept our responsibility to be part of the solution. To do this, we've developed a comprehensive sustainability strategy with ambitious, consistent goals. Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in our vision and mission:
