Our sustainable development
1 We review the content and materials of all products to ensure they meet our requirements before launch.
2 We have ongoing discussions with our suppliers about how we can develop our products to reduce their environmental impact.
3 We exclude products when they no longer meet the environmental performance we consider necessary.
We use recycled material in our packaging, the filling material in our shipments is either recycled bubble wrap or recycled paper waste.
Business as a force for good
Our products should not be produced at the expense of others. This is why we offset in projects certified with the Gold standard, the only certification standard that has been approved and recognized by more than 80 international environmental organizations. It is also important to us that our suppliers provide safe workplaces with social rights for their employees, which is why we conduct social audits and check our suppliers in Asia regularly. Of course, we have signed the UN Global Compact, the UN's ten principles on human rights at work. Principles we also require our suppliers to live up to.
Rahmqvist in society
"We want to contribute to a more sustainable society. For better health, integration and justice. We therefore regularly participate in e.g. Rosa Bandet, Musikhjälpen and have supported Good Sports for many years. With the help of Vi-skogen, we have planted thousands of trees around Lake Victoria in East Africa. In addition, we regularly donate our products to aid organizations operating around the world."
Signe and Eric
At Rahmqvist, we have our own action program for increased diversity, equality and inclusive leadership that everyone must participate in. For us, it is important that everyone should have the same opportunities, rights and obligations and value regardless of background and ethnicity.
