Westpack ESG and Policies
Responsibility
Westpack is always at the cutting-edge of challenges. We make decisions and changes proactively, if we see problems arising. On-time care, so to speak. For instance in terms of solving problems/optimisation with procurement and quality tests. But also in terms of employee care, organisation and recruiting. In short, CSR.
Community
Our manageable size makes us able to see the customer as a common project. Not your customer and my customer, but our customer. Thus, a whole team knows your case in detail. We build a community with our customers, invite them to China, making our partnership confident and safe.
However, Westpack is also a strong internal community. A number of motivating and social activities have created a strong sense of community amongst the employees of the company. Something, our customers can sense in form of real presence and genuine interest in their business.
Credibility
A trustful dialogue with customers is the base of Westpack. A transparent organisation, honest dialogue and open calculations are the foundation of high credibility in open negotiations with Westpack’s customers and suppliers. That is one of the reasons for choosing us. A deal is a deal and delivery doesn’t end until everything is conducted as agreed. That is credible and a behaviour that permeates every fibre of our organisation.
Business Acumen
Westpack conducts business according to the principle of proper business acumen. In terms of our own business, but also on behalf of our customers. A good deal is only good if it creates value for both parties. We are proud to be a valuable part of the value chain of our customers and nothing else makes sense to us. We believe that long-term relations invigorate the businesses of both parties. And that is good business acumen to Westpack.
Westpack Policies
Westpack is a full member of Amfori, which provides access to the BSCI platform. The platform is known for its transparency in the monitoring process. Another significant advantage is Amfori Academy, which offers training and e-learning to members. Westpack’s employees in Asia thus have the opportunity to enhance their expertise and stay updated on ESG. The employees at our suppliers also gain access to the Amfori Academy, further strengthening Westpack’s value chain.
Environmental Policy
Westpack will strive to continually improve environmental impacts by integrating environmental considerations into our daily operations. We will embed environmental considerations into every part of our work to support and grow our business. We shall all endeavor to reduce environmental impact, resource consumption, and follow best practices to prevent or minimize pollution. Where we have or may have significant environmental impacts, we will use proven management systems to monitor our results. When developing/implementing processes, we always evaluate environmental aspects – from our use of raw materials and energy to product usage and disposal after their lifecycle. We will comply with current legislative requirements and the environmental obligations we have committed to. Westpack will collaborate with our suppliers, authorities, customers, partners, and other stakeholders to promote environmentally responsible behavior.
We only collaborate with suppliers, who have signed and observe our Code of Conduct, inspired by SA 8000, and further sign an agreement on 100% compliance with our guidelines and intentions, aligned with:
- SA 8000
- FSC®
- EUTR(where Westpack has: licence to operate)
- Reach (SVHC)
FSC® is the mark of responsible forestry. www.fsc.org.
Our FSC licence number is FSC®C112509.
