Environmental Policy

ISO 14001

We are committed to operating an environmental management system in compliance with the ISO 14001 standard to promote sustainable business practices.   

We adopt a life-cycle perspective to assess and minimize the environmental impacts of our products throughout their life cycle – from raw material selection, production, transportation, and use, to disposal by our customers.

We continuously document and reduce our CO2 emissions. Through data analysis, we identify improvement projects that help decrease our environmental footprint. 

We remain focused on renewable raw materials and energy sources, as well as new technologies across all stages of our products’ life cycle.

Environmental policy in compliance with the ISO 14001 standard

Our Focus Areas:

✔️  Zero Chemical Spill Strategy:

We are committed to zero chemical spill and work continuously to ensure that our processes maintain this goal.

✔️  Environmental Assessment in Process Changes:

When expanding or modifying production equipment and facilities, we incorporate environmental aspects to minimize environmental impact.

✔️ Product Development:

Environmental aspects are integrated into the development of new products, and we actively apply the substitution principle to use the least environmentally harmful raw materials. Our goal is to reduce the use of hazardous chemicals and minimize environmental impact.

✔️ CO2 Reduction Targets:

We have ambitious goals to reduce our CO2 emissions, with 2020 as the baseline year:

      • Scope 1: 70% reduction by 2030
      • Scope 2: 70% reduction by 2030
      • Our overall goal is to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.

✔️ Sustainable Palm Kernel Oil:

Esti Chem is a member of the RSPO, and many of our products are RSPO certified. We are committed to phasing out non-certified raw materials, and we report progress in our annual ACOP report to the RSPO:

      • By 2030, 50% of non-certified palm kernel oil-based raw materials will be phased out.
      • By 2050, 100% will be phased out.                                          

✔️ Employee Involvement:

All employees are involved in our environmental efforts and are encouraged to suggest improvements through internal audits and records in our management system. Employees are trained in spill management, waste handling, sustainable product development, and more, so that everyone can contribute to promoting sustainability in all processes.       

✔️ Measurement and Control:

We systematically measure energy, water, CO2, and waste consumption, as well as recycling of packaging and raw materials, to monitor and reduce our environmental impact. An annual environmental and CO2 report is prepared, detailing progress and identifying new reduction opportunities.

✔️ Suppliers:

Our suppliers are selected to support our sustainability focus. We work with partners who not only meet environmental standards but also actively invest in new technologies to reduce their environmental impact.

With certifications like ISO 14001 and a focus on green technology, they contribute to driving a greener, forward-looking development. 

✔️ Legislation and Regulations:

We complies with Danish environmental legislation, local regulations, and EU directives and guidelines to ensure that we meet the latest environmental requirements. 

We are committed to continuous improvement and strive to deliver products and solutions that support a sustainable future
