Our Approach to Sustainability
AVENT MedTech is committed to, and invests heavily in, creating a sustainable environment for us and future generations. Our strategy is framed around:
Social sustainability. AVENT MedTech focuses on social responsibility and being a business that supports the surrounding community, employees and stakeholders. AVENT MedTech invests in long-term community relationships by 'giving back' through sponsoring youth sport and other health related opportunities.
Environmental sustainability. AVENT MedTech is certified carbon neutral and invests in wildlife regeneration and growth projects around the world. Every day, we assess our impact on waste and reduce packaging where possible. All our paper, cardboard, labelling and other consumables are biodegradable where possible (~97%). Our warehouse is part-powered with green energy where infrastructure allows (~65%).
Economic sustainability. As an SME, AVENT MedTech focuses on corporate governance, supply chain sustainability, sustainability risk management, compliance and accounting transparency. Ensuring that we are compliant and a legitimate entity is paramount to our initial and ongoing successes.
