Sustainability

Prominate is a changemaker and we take our responsibility to preserve the planet for future generations very seriously.

As industry experts, we lead with a robust sustainability agenda, supporting our clients to make informed purchasing decisions, creating a healthier environment for all.

Our transparent supply chain is aligned to our KPIs and monitored against the UN Global Sustainable Development Goals throughout the whole product development cycle. This provides visibility and clear measurement at all points and aids our clients to fulfil their own sustainability objectives.

One of the ways we measure our approach is through the Ecovadis Sustainability Ratings.

Independent verification on all areas of sustainability.

A more sustainable future at our core

As signatories to the BPMA StepForward Pledge, we annually submit our commitment through a Communication on Progress.
Each year we increase our direct contribution focus on the UN Sustainable Development Goals which in turn allows us to contribute to all 17 goals.

How are we doing this?

We monitor our performance against the UN Sustainable Development Goals. It starts with partnerships for the goals, partnering with suppliers that support the goals (17). Providing product offerings to our clients that support the goals (15,14).

Offering Carbon Calculations and offset for products (13,12,7,6). Internal policies to prevent discrimination and harvest a supportive, progressive and happy work environment (8,10,3,5,9).

A robust Supply Chain Management Program that supports working with suppliers doing the right thing and guides improvement (8,1,2,4,16).

Our preferred suppliers complete our Supplier Sustainable Impact Questionnaire (SSIQ) which includes asking which goals their business support (11,9,16).

Development goals

In our business strategy, we shape our ambitions in line with United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals and truly believe our business can have a significant impact on a greener future.

People

We never lose sight of the fact that people are at the heart of everything we do and have built an inclusive global culture that enables our employees and community to remain engaged, enthused and energised.

Health & wellbeing

We recognise that a positive business environment can only be built upon a foundation of health and happiness so, throughout our organisation, we promote physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.

Governance

Good governance is embedded in our culture. The robust policies and governance structure we have in place ensure that we continue to act responsibly towards our people, our clients and the communities we operate in.

Supply chain audits

We monitor and manage our supply chain through audits, not only to identify and minimise risk, but also to ensure full and consistent compliance with the ethical, social and operational criteria set out in the Prominate code.
