Corporate Social Responsibility

Together with the public, we strive to preserve or restore a clean environment and nature. Together, we are responsible for our ecological footprint. We are aware of the impact of our business activities on the environment and society and act in a way that the natural environment is preserved and available for future generations as well. We therefore have the ambition to be recognised as an example of corporate social responsibility in the Groningen region. We do this by increasingly integrating sustainability into our business processes, services and products.

Corporate social responsibility statement

We make conscious choices and seek a balance between people, the environment and society. This statement is a process, not a final destination. We are constantly looking for new ways and opportunities to do business in a socially responsible way. Only together do we stand strong and ensure a future that belongs to everyone.
