About De Boer/Sustainability



About 'covering tomorrow'
The various activities of De Boer in the fields of Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility have been grouped in the programme "Covering tomorrow".  People, Planet and Performance all have a place in this programme, which is briefly described below.

Planet
De Boer is determined to be an environmental leader in its industry and in 2010 introduced its environmental policy.  It is our policy to conduct business in a manner that minimises impact on the environment, to strive for elimination of pollution, to show social responsibility, to develop sustainable solutions and to ensure continuous improvement. 

A copy of the environmental policy can be requested by sending an email to marketing@deboer.com .

In line with the determination to be an environmental leader, De Boer achieved ISO 14001 certification in January 2011.
