Hüpeden takes sustainability very seriously and wants to make a positive contribution to society. We therefore act in a responsible way and strive to protect and conserve natural resources - especially for future generations.
Some of our food items are certified through BIO, NATURLAND, MSC, ASC and Global Gap and our tuna is caught in a dolphin-friendly way - controlled by the Ell.
Many of our traded textiles are STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®, FSC® or COTTON USA certified.
Our Environmental Guidelines:
Protecting the environment is a central corporate objective. We aim to actively contribute to reducing environmental impacts and to fulfill our responsibility toward our customers, fellow human beings, and future generations.
Through our participation in ÖKOPROFIT and the committed involvement of all employees, we promote sustainable development at our site.
For us, corporate environmental prevention means taking a holistic view of all processes within the company, analyzing them regularly, and continuously improving them. Only by using natural resources responsibly in the production of our goods in third countries and in the provision of our services can environmental impacts be reduced sustainably.
We are committed to complying with all applicable laws, regulations, and official requirements — and, beyond that, to continuously optimizing our company’s environmental protection measures. In doing so, we always base our approach on the best available technology that is economically feasible.
Successful environmental protection can only be achieved through the active commitment of all employees. For this reason, we attach great importance to providing information, training, and motivation so that each individual can assume responsibility and integrate environmental protection into everyday work.
We maintain an open and objective dialogue with our business partners and customers. We welcome suggestions and proposals for improvement at any time and also review their implementation.
When procuring our products, we take ecological criteria into account. We give preference to suppliers that attach a similarly high level of importance to environmental protection as we do.
