Our acknowledgments
Lucie 26000
Our CSR approach, carried out at the highest level of the company, is established for the whole group but is also supported by all employees. This demonstrates the organization’s willingness to integrate social and environmental considerations into its decision-making processes and to be accountable for the impact of its decisions and activities on society and the environment. These actions have been externally audited, which led to the LUCIE 26000 certification.
Ecovadis
We are regularly assessed by ECOVADIS, an internationally recognized company, to evaluate our sustainable development performance across the entire company based on 7 CSR criteria. In 2022, we obtained the gold medal in the Medium Size Company category, with a score of 74/100.
Since 2006, the environmental approach has been at the heart of our concerns. This certification allows us to constantly improve and reduce our negative impact on the environment.
Two sites are certified ISO 14001.
Certificates of conformity to decree n°2021-461 from April 1, 2021
As part of the AGEC law for anti-waste and circular economy and to comply with decree n°2021-461, our manufaturing sites have been audited in order to assess the measures taken to prevent the loss and discharge of industrial plastic compounds into the environment. This approach underlines our commitment to reducing our impact on the environment.
SGH Medical Pharma attaches great importance to respecting the laws, regulations and universal ethical principles supported by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and as described in the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals, for all our activities around the world. Therefore, we naturally renewed our support to UN Global Compact, as we have done since 2009.
