We nurture a one-company feeling that makes our Chinese and Belgian employees feel secure and connected, encouraging them to develop their potential and grow within our company, regardless of their location or business unit.

To further strengthen this approach, we selected the Great Place To Work Trust Model as our framework and in 2025, we will initiate the process to achieve the Great Place To Work certificate.

In addition to our internal focus, we are dedicated to supporting those in need within our communities. We concentrate our efforts on three key areas: mental well-being, poverty alleviation, and quality education. We support charity organizations working in these areas through financial aid and product donations.

We want to evolve from passionate designers to passionate ecodesigners by integrating ecodesign principles into our processes.

We have quantified the environmental impact of all our materials via a science-based, recognized approach, leading to an automated eco-score for each design. This gives our designers a detailed insight into how they can make our products more sustainable.

Detailed design with BOM

• materials used
• individual quantities used

Sustainability score calculated

• material is linked to a group
• for each group, a sustainability score is defined
• based on the quantities used, all individual material scores and the total product score are calculated

We already calculated our scope 1 and 2 emissions, as well as parts of our scope 3 emissions. We aim to have a full, GHG-protocol-based carbon footprint calculation by 2025.

To improve our carbon footprint, we already switch to 100% renewable electricity (scope 2) and aim to achieve also net-zero for scope 1 by 2030.

However, most of our carbon footprint arises from scope 3 emissions, which are predominantly associated with the materials we use in our products.

To address this, we integrated the carbon footprint of our materials in our automated scoring tool as well (see eCodesign). This will allow us to also focus specifically on minimizing the carbon footprint of our designs, with a 30% reduction target by 2035.
