Sustainability

The UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals have become a part of the strategy

Ravendo A/S is a manufacturing company with a significant carbon footprint. We are conscious of our responsibility as a business and strive to do the right thing when it comes to sustainability. We achieve this by incorporating sustainability into decisions where it makes sense and actively working towards the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals that we can influence. Specifically, we focus on Goals 4, 8, and 12. This includes everything from products to material choices, social responsibility, and education.

In 2021, we were awarded the World Goals Prize at the Viborg Business Award Show 2021, primarily for our efforts in the social sector.

OUR GOAL

... to incorporate sustainability into all decisions and actively work with several of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Tobias G. Nielsen, CEO, Ravendo A/S

Education

Goal number 4 of the Sustainable Development Goals focuses on education, and at Ravendo, we place great emphasis on providing all our employees with the opportunity to educate themselves during their employment with us. Some of our employees started as unskilled workers but have acquired courses, certificates, and qualifications along the way, which equip them for both their current and future employment. This does not mean that all employees have taken advantage of the opportunity because at Ravendo, there should be room for everyone regardless of their professional background.

Social Responsibility

At Ravendo, we also have a core area called social responsibility. We bring young people and individuals on the fringes of the labor market into the company. Here, they quickly assume responsibilities and become an integral part of the workplace. Social responsibility aligns with Sustainable Development Goal number 8, which is about decent work and economic growth.

Responsible Consumption and Production

Sustainable Development Goal number 12 is about responsible consumption and production, which is a key parameter for us at Ravendo. Here, we work with long-lasting durability, and this is reflected in all material choices, where the focus is on quality and robustness. Our products are made from selected quality materials and are Danish-produced with a focus on quality, ergonomics, durability, and user-friendliness. Our products stand in contrast to the disposable culture since they are difficult to wear out.
