As of today, investors and others with an interest can read a full report on
Coloplast's social, environmental and ethical performance. The report is the
first of its kind in Coloplast's history, though Coloplast has released green
accounts since 1994.
"Social and environmental responsibility has always been a natural part of
Coloplast's business, and it's certainly an area where we have a lot to be
proud of,” says Jeppe Kromann Haarsted, Corporate Responsibility Manager.
“Until now, however, we kept most results for ourselves, but in recent years we
have seen a strong interest in corporate responsibility, especially from
investors. Therefore, the report was a logic next step."
Coloplast's corporate responsibility report has been written in accordance with
the international standard GRI (Global Reporting Initiative). It covers the
period from 19 November 2008 to 28 February 2010. Going forward,Coloplast will
publish the report annually in November in connection with the financial
statement.
In 2002 Coloplast signed the UN Global Compact declaration and has since then
been a member of the Dow Jones sustainability index and the FTSE4Good index.
