Sustainability

At Ecotemis we are committed to sustainable development: environmental, economic, and social.  We see outstanding sustainability performance as a prerequisite for our business success and continuous improvement.

Sustainability entrenched in our business

Our products and services bring solar energy to cities, closer to people, to ensure sustainable energy:  energy that is available everyday to everybody, current and future generations. They also produce energy with no waste, no greenhouse gas emissions, and no depletion of material.

We endeavor to meet all our stakeholders’ expectations, to embody sustainability not only in our products but also in our corporate conduct.

Investors: Transparency, credibility, and trust are our credo and the characteristics of our affiliation with all our investors and business partners. Partnership with Ecotemis is about having full peace of mind. We deliver world-class triple-bottom-line (People, Planet, Profit) and as a result are a socially responsible investment.

Customers: We provide first-class products and after-sales support. We aim at consistently high performance as well as at building long-term, reliable and responsible relationships with our customers. Through our unique joint-design processes, our clients are free to create, enjoy, expand, challenge, dream and ultimately experience sustainable, innovative and beautiful architecture.

Employees: We endorse a culture of recognition, respect and integrity. We abide by the strictest health and safety standards, as well as labor and social standards. We promote diversity, while we provide our employees with opportunities for training, enhancing their skills and unleashing their full potential towards further professional development.

Suppliers: Our business conduct principles require that our suppliers adhere to healthy and safe working conditions, respect the human rights of their workers, and commit to eco-friendly production processes.

Local community: Our philosophy lies in promoting the economic and social development of the communities in which we operate. Whenever possible we choose local suppliers, and we engage in voluntary social activities. Meanwhile, we take all the necessary precautions to minimize our environmental impact on the local community.

Our Climate Neutral Program

The Ecotemis’ customer event in January 2011 was climate neutral:

- All Greenhouse Gas Emissions were minimized as much as possible, with the use of sustainable caterers Ethiques and Toques, transport choices and minimizing travel.

- All inevitable emissions have been offset in cooperation with the organisation WeForest, through the funding of the plantation of 3000 mangrove trees in Madagascar, in the Mahabana estuary 180 km west of Mahajanga near Cape Saint Andre.
