In 2024, we launched a redesigned charger packaging alternative across all our hearing aids brands globally, with the exception of charger packaging for one private-label customer. The project aimed to eliminate plastic content and reduce the packaging size to minimise material consumption. While we still use plastic bags to protect our products inside the package, both the inside and outside of the packaging itself is now plastic-free.

As products, consumables and packaging characteristics differ greatly between our business areas, our circular economy efforts are led by the business areas and aim to enhance our circular economy performance in specific topics that may not be applicable to the entire Group. Therefore, we have not yet established targets at Group level.
