Royal Ahrend’s mission is to create vitalising workspaces for employees worldwide. Our corporate strategy is built to deliver projects and products contributing to this goal. Sustainability is one of the corner stones of our corporate strategy. Our sustainability strategy is therefore closely connected to our company’s mission to create vitalising workspaces. 

Our sustainability strategy focusses on four themes and eighteen projects, which we matched to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) in order to map our contribution to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Our focus is on sustainable and circular product design, circular services, product life extension and reducing our greenhouse gas emissions to net zero before 2050. Furthermore, we focus on social fairness to achieve healthy and ethical operations across our entire value chain. We contribute to various SDGs through this renewed sustainability strategy. In the graphic below we connected our strategy to SDG's and the ESG reporting topics.

In 2023, we developed our sustainability strategy 2030, based on a double materiality assessment, to enhance environmental and social performance in collaboration with stakeholders. Our approach and outcomes are presented in the next chapter.

Ahrend’s Business Code of Conduct and supporting policies—covering quality, environment, diversity, equity, inclusion, and human rights—guide our sustainability efforts. The Business Partner Code of Conduct ensures alignment with our sustainability standards across the value chain, reinforcing our commitment to responsible business practices.
