Glasshape® understands that in order to be truly sustainable we need a holistic view of how we operate. The three interconnected spheres of sustainability being Environmental, Economic and Social need to be managed in a collective way in order to provide a total sustainable future for our business to prosper and for those that we are connected to can benefit from.
Environmental Sustainability
Glasshape® is committed to developing an environmentally friendly and sustainable future, to help ensure generations to come inherit a world that benefits from our efforts and is less affected by climate change.
We understand that what we do can make a difference, for better or worse and therefore we take this responsibility very seriously.
Our Sustainable Supply Partners
We have chosen to enter into supply partnerships with the following companies not only for the quality of service and products that they provide; but also as they share a common view with us on the importance of sustainability.
Economic Sustainability
Fairness, Accountability, Responsibility & Transparency in Governance
Glasshape® governance and management is multi-leveled, drawing upon the expertise of its Directors and Senior Management Team in order to maintain a high degree of transparency, fairness and accountability to its Shareholders and all Stakeholders in the business, including its Staff. Glasshape continually monitors and reports on its economic performance and actively works to remove any risk from the business; which could cause harm and adversely affect those entities that are both, directly and indirectly, related to it.
Social Sustainability
Respect, Support & the Wellbeing of our Staff and Community
Glasshape® respects and values its staff and the communities which they come from and who we serve. We understand that without their support and wellbeing, we wouldn’t be able to perform at the standard required within the Markets in which we do business. It’s our people that make the difference and it is the reason why we invest a lot of time and effort into making sure that the environment in which they operate, is safe and that they are adequately trained to perform their designated tasks, free of concern. We actively support and encourage our staff to better themselves and help where possible, to further their education and training, enabling them to grow within the business. We are advocates for equal opportunity, employing and promoting staff based on their skills and not their gender, race or physical abilities.
