Quality & Sustainability
Sustainability and corporate social responsibility have been essential elements of FLAWA’s commitment to quality for longer than anyone can remember. When it comes to protecting and ensuring the safety of people and the environment, FLAWA sets similarly high standards in the quality of its processes, services and products.

Sourcing
For FLAWA, corporate social responsibility means permanently improving not just the things it does and but also how it does those things. Integrity and the greatest possible care when dealing with people and the environment are areas in which FLAWA measures its own activity and that of its partners every single day.

FLAWA analyses the environmental impact of its raw materials, packaging materials and manufacturing processes. The yearly audits of its key suppliers examine technical and commercial issues as well as social and environmental factors.

Production
Across the entire chain from development and production through to disposal, FLAWA ensures that no polluting materials are used and that the processes ensure the safety and health of both people and the environment. The high technical quality of the facilities makes it possible to draw maximum benefit from the raw materials employed.

Voluntary climate protection and energy efficiency
While we are certainly focused on ensuring the highest quality products for our customers, we also care about our environment. FLAWA is committed to protecting the environment – we have already managed to reduce our CO2 emissions and energy consumption by more than half through carefully targeted measures.

As an external sign of this inner understanding of quality, FLAWA has its processes certified in accordance with the following standards at regular intervals:
