Thesis 3: Resources are used responsibly

We consider materials, production, transportation, and packaging throughout the entire product lifecycle to minimize unnecessary environmental impact and use resources efficiently.

In practice, this means choosing durable and responsibly sourced materials and working closely with our manufacturing partners to reduce waste. We also aim to produce only what is needed.

Our products are transported and packaged in ways that minimize unnecessary environmental impact. Our efforts are guided by measurable targets and a certified environmental management system.

RESPONSIBILITY IS DELIVERING ADDED VALUE

At the heart of Dimex's principles is that our operations and products create visible, valuable, responsible and progressive added value for our customers. We don't make clothes for ourselves, but for users who do important work every day. But we understand that our products are also part of the company's choices and image.

We produce to meet demand, not to build inventory

Just as our own manufacturing chain must be in tip-top shape at all times – in terms of efficiency, quality and sustainability – our products and services have a significant impact on our customers’ value chain. Every action we take has an impact on our customers’ sustainability programs, and every action we take is reflected there as well.

Therefore, our goal is not to win tenders at any cost, but to stand out in the field as a partner that delivers exceptional added value. The goal is to become our clients' preferred supplier, and this requires gaining trust in all areas of our operations - where the importance of responsibility is growing all the time.

Transportation and packaging without unnecessary environmental impact

Small choices in transportation and packaging add up. We prioritize sea freight over air freight to reduce the environmental impact of our supply chain. We pack our products as efficiently as possible, avoid using plastic bags, and reuse boxes even when they are not in perfect condition.

Our environmental efforts are guided by a certified ISO 14001 environmental management system, and we are committed to an SBTi target of reducing emissions from our own operations by 42% by 2030.
