Gunnebo Group drives sustainability transparency forward

Gunnebo Group has joined the United Nations Global Compact, reinforcing its commitment to conducting business in line with internationally recognised principles for responsible and ethical business practices. 

Through participation in the initiative, the company will further strengthen its approach to sustainability, governance and transparency while reporting annually on its progress against the UN Global Compact's Ten Principles.

The United Nations Global Compact provides a framework for companies to align their strategies and operations with its Ten Principles while contributing to broader sustainable development objectives. By joining the initiative, Gunnebo Group becomes part of a global network of organisations working to strengthen responsible business practices across industries and markets.

"Joining the UN Global Compact is a natural step in our sustainability journey," said Fredrik Fors, General Counsel & SVP Sustainability, Gunnebo Group. "The Ten Principles provide a globally recognised framework that aligns closely with our values and the way we approach responsible business. Participation will help us strengthen our work in key areas such as human rights, environmental responsibility, ethical business conduct and transparency, while also providing opportunities to learn from and collaborate with other organisations facing similar challenges."

For Gunnebo Group, participating in the UN Global Compact reflects a commitment to embedding responsible business practices across the organisation. The framework supports the company's ongoing efforts to strengthen governance, manage sustainability-related risks and opportunities, and ensure its business practices are aligned with internationally recognised principles.

"Responsible business requires continuous improvement, accountability and a willingness to engage with complex issues," Fredrik added. "By joining the UN Global Compact, we are reaffirming our commitment to these principles and to embedding them across our business as we work to create long-term value for our customers, employees, partners and wider society."
