What?
The LATICRETE sustainability journey is a collaborative, holistic approach to contribute to the sustainable development of the communities we live in and for our planet.
We do this by continuously transforming our business to minimize its impact on health, safety and the environment and by innovating more sustainable processes, products and services for our employees, installers, distributors and the occupants of buildings made with our solutions.
Why?
As a multi-generational global family business, we care for the members of our business families — employees, customers, business partners, — for the communities we live in, for the next generations and for the planet.
To be a sustainable company for the long run, we believe that sustainable development is essential for our business model and our brand, to:
- fulfill the aspirations of our employees,
- attract new generations for our teams,
- improve the lives of people using our solutions,
- drive the positive evolution of the construction industry,
- differentiate as a leading brand from the competition while embracing the best standards of our industry, and
- be recognized as an organization embracing our social responsibilities in the communities and countries we are operating.
This commitment is consistent with our purpose to improve the built world and the lives of those who build it.
How?
In this journey, we seek continuous incremental progress, behavior changes and significant breakthroughs, with objective and measurable contributions to sustainability improvement.
We do this by incorporating a holistic approach of the impact of our processes and solutions — by us and our business partners — and for all steps of our product life cycle. We are not interested in greenwashing. Our approach is pragmatic, transparent, honest, and resolute, based on facts and science, and is reflecting of our core values and brand promises.
We do what is right. We do it together and with our partners.
