At Bollé Brands, we are aware of the many environmental and social issues of our time, some of which are directly related to our business: the fight against global warming, plastic waste, respect for human rights, inclusion, equity and diversity. We want to put our environmental and social commitments at the heart of our strategy to help reduce our impact. On the one hand, we want to limit our negative impacts by accurately assessing them and putting in place the right action plans. On the other hand, we want to maximise our positive impact by inventing tomorrow’s solutions. We see these challenges as opportunities for innovation and value creation.
We are proud to say that this year has been rich in achievements that have reinforced our commitments. This report provides an overview of our progress.
We look forward to further integrating sustainability into our operations. We are structuring our approach in line with the Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact, with an ambitious goal of B Corp certification by 2024.
Peter Smith, President and CEO Bollé Brands
Our approach to ESG is a balanced one, both ambitious and pragmatic. We have focused our strategy on two pillars:
• Creating engagement and raising awareness to set the world in motion
• AND acting through projects that express our ambitions in a concrete way.
We are developing an educational approach to help people understand and share a common view on the challenges of collective and individual responsibility. It is based on two key elements: Climate Fresk workshops for all our employees worldwide and the appointment of ESG ambassadors who propose and carry out various local initiatives.
To face business challenges, we measure our environmental and social impact, set improvement targets and coordinate our efforts across all our activities to overcome them. For example, we have measured our carbon footprint for scopes 1, 2 and 3 and set a reduction target in line with the Science Based Target Initiative (SBTi).
And we are not alone in our strategy. We are moving forward with others. We work with a network of external partners (experts, consultants, professional organisations) to co-create innovative solutions.
