Why sustainability matters…

• Incidents trigger steady increase of focus on all aspects of sustainability

• NGO campaigns are highly credible and become regulatory mainstream, e.g. forest use, human rights, diversity

• Consistent focus on sourcing strategies, certificates, reporting and regulatory compliance

• Sustainability needs broadened to also include social and economic aspects

• Consistent sourcing strategies and credible reporting becomes buying criterion

• Believe that resource efficiency pays off

• Market growth in renewable and sustainable technologies favors ESG focused companies

• ESG compliant companies have better risk management
