Eco-responsible goodies

EcoVadis provides the first solution dedicated to integrating and monitoring sustainable development practices in purchasing processes.

Their methodology: EcoVadis methodology is based on international sustainable development standards (GRI (Global Reporting Initiative), UN Global Compact, ISO 26000), and supervised by a scientific committee of CSR and Purchasing experts, to guarantee the independence and reliability of assessments.

We follow the ETIKEKO assessment program, which enables us to measure the efforts made on our products and factories. We evaluate the eco-design efforts of the product, from its raw material to its packaging, and of the manufacturer by assessing the societal guarantees it can provide.

The Fédération Française des Professionnels de la Communication par l'Objet brings together over 200 members around its charter: ethics and sustainable development, commercial transparency, company organization, quality label.

The fundamental principles of the profession are listed, and an annual audit has guaranteed our commitment since 2015.

Choose to brand our STOCK products exclusively in France, to guarantee short lead times, local workshops to reduce our CO2 emissions and help protect 2,000 jobs in France.

This also enables us to guarantee that our European printing inks comply with the DIN-EN-71 standard.

With a view to continuous progress, we have strengthened our CSR strategy and signed up to the Diversity Charter for non-discriminatory human resources management, the Responsible Supplier Relations Charter to build sustainable, balanced relationships with our partners, and the United Nations Global Compact to advance our corporate social responsibility approach.

We are committed to the principle of non-discrimination in the treatment of our employees.

We are committed to building a lasting, balanced relationship based on mutual trust, with 10 commitments to which we are accountable.

 In particular, we include a CSR commitment in our contracts with suppliers.

We are voluntarily committed to working and reporting on 4 main themes as part of a process of progress and exchange of virtuous best practices: human rights, the environment, anti-corruption and respect for international labor standards.

We are committed to ensuring good environmental management through management methods designed to take into account the environmental impact of our activities, assess this impact and reduce it.

The actions undertaken are :

• eco-design of products
• pollution prevention
• reducing our consumption of natural resources
• reducing our energy consumption
• reducing our waste
• environmental education
• involving our suppliers and subcontractors by encouraging them to adopt the same system

Because the social performance of our suppliers is just as important as price, quality and delivery times, we became a member of the BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative) in 2010 and are committed to ensuring that 2/3 of our purchasing volume goes through factories monitored and audited according to BSCI specifications.

INFO: in 2016, SEDEX and BSCI signed an agreement aimed at developing joint projects and programs designed to strengthen their respective members' sustainability efforts.

(Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals)

This is a European regulation requiring the identification, evaluation and control of chemical substances manufactured, imported or placed on the European market. It aims to protect human health and the environment from the potential risks posed by chemical substances.

We ask all our suppliers to ensure that our products do not contain any banned substances (168 at the time of going to press), or that they are kept at acceptable levels. To verify this, we test products or require REACH compliance certificates.

RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) is a European directive (2002/95/EC) aimed at limiting the use of six hazardous substances.
