Sustainability is a core element in implementing Orthex’s growth strategy and key objectives as we strive to be the storage category leader in Europe and the benchmark for quality, practicality and sustainability in every home. In our decision making, we consider environmental aspects proactively.

At Orthex, we have identified priority sustainability topics under the areas Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG). The topics are based on the materiality assessment that was conducted in 2025. For each topic, we have defined key performance indicators (KPIs) and set targets. 

Orthex’s sustainability strategy follows the ESG structure, and it is confirmed annually for a three-year period. Our sustainability strategy for 2026–2028 drives our actions forward and supports us in reaching our ambitious long-term sustainability targets. Based on the findings of the double materiality assessment conducted in 2025, we have streamlined our strategy to focus on topics where our sustainability-related impacts, risks, and opportunities are the most significant. 

Environmental

We focus on continuously minimising our impact on the environment and climate, and one of our key targets is to reduce our relative carbon footprint. In line with the double materiality assessment, our key environmental topics are circular economy and climate change.

Social 

Own workforce, consumers and end-users and workers in the value chain are the key elements of our social responsibility. Orthex promotes a zero-accident vision and culture, and we measure our performance with Lost-Time Injury Frequency (LTIF) rate.

Governance

Orthex’s way of conducting business goes beyond compliance with applicable laws and regulations - high ethical standards and integrity are present in everything we do. Our Code of Conduct and Supplier Code of Conduct define the key principles for how we engage in business.
