Our Environmental Policy, covering GN’s approach to all material environmental topics across our own operations and value chain, includes a section on resource inflows, stating that our commitment to reducing resource inflows by optimizing for efficient resource use in the design of our product and avoiding unnecessary production waste. Where this is technically and operationally feasible, we are committed to introducing recycled or renewable alternatives for materials used in our products. For biological or renewable materials, such as paper and cardboard used in our packaging, we strive to source these materials sustainably to ensure this does not lead to deforestation. The provenance of the materials we use is pivotal to the impact of our value chain, which is why we source materials with credible third-party certifications, such as FSC, ISCC Plus and Global Recycling Standard.
