Building a sustainable future
At INOGENI, our commitment to ESG is reflected in everything we do, including our rigorous Code of Conduct based on the principles of the United Nations Global Compact, to ensure that we operate in line with our values and our responsibilities to the environment and society, and that we have ethical governance. All our employees are bound by this code, which is also integrated into our Supplier Code of Conduct.
INOGENI’s ESG policy
At INOGENI, we recognize that our role as a responsible company is to help create a better world, because environmental, social and governance concerns are at the heart of our decisions and actions. As a company that designs and manufactures technology products and operates through an international network of distributors and integrators, we have a responsibility to our stakeholders, including our customers, employees, suppliers, the communities in which we operate and the planet.
We are committed to a proactive and continuous improvement approach to ESG, through research, consultation and collaboration with our stakeholders to understand their concerns and incorporate their feedback into our policy and projects.
We are committed to implementing concrete ESG projects, to ensure that we achieve measurable and concrete objectives in the following key areas:
ENVIRONMENTAL COMMITMENT
INOGENI’s eco-friendly approach: Sustainability in action
- We value local production
- The company performs and manages engineering and manufacturing activities in Quebec and Canada, in compliance with applicable legal requirements for safety and sustainable development. This local manufacturing means that 97% of our production is completed with renewable energy. The “Made in Canada” label is recognized worldwide by our customers for both quality and safety reasons.
- Reduce our environmental footprint by adopting sustainable natural resource management practices such as the 3Rs (reduce, reuse and recycle) and responsible design.
- Reduce waste, greenhouse gas emissions, and water and energy consumption in our supply chain and our operations.
- To maintain quality standards, and to protect users and the environment, INOGENI products comply with the following environmental, electromagnetic, and electrical standards: FCC, CE, RoSH, IEC62368, SoV, UKCA, RCM, and KC. We intend to adopt more advanced standards in the future, including the European Union’s Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) standard, which governs the disposal of such waste.
