Sustainable development goals
These 17 sustainable development goals, linked to 169 targets, form the basis of our sustainability strategy. These goals, which are one and indivisible, reflect the three dimensions of sustainable development: the economic, social and ecological dimensions. The goals can be subdivided into five main themes: humankind, planet, prosperity, peace and partnership.
Green headquarters
At Aluvision, we’re continuously looking for better ways to care for our staff and the environment. With our future-forward mindset, we’re already taking our next step, towards even greener headquarters than we have now, building a brand-new HQ at the Evolis industrial site in Kortrijk (BE). Our goal? Combining the latest durable energy technologies with a future-proof design, to create a work environment that’s both sustainable and inspirational. Next to lean production areas and open office space filled with natural light, there will be plenty of leisure possibilities and a terrace for employees to enjoy nature during lunch break. Moreover, the new plant will be powered by solar panels and wind turbines and offer staff the possibility to plug in their electric cars or come to work by bike or public transportation more easily.
Planting seeds for tomorrow
We view sustainability as more than a way of doing business. It’s a lifestyle, and we provide opportunities for our staff to learn and share in our values outside our daily operations. We try to help our staff to live and work more conciously, simply by offering possibilities to do so. Apart from solar energy and lean production spaces, we also use rainwater to flush all our toilets. Employees are encouraged to refill their reusable water bottles with purified tap water instead of using disposable plastic bottles. A small change in mindset, can have a big effect in and outside of the work environment.
Journey of efficiency
Our commitment to our partners extends beyond providing innovative exhibit solutions—it’s about offering reliability and sustainability every step of the way. Instead of labor-intensive custom wooden booths, we offer a dependable modular system that fosters creativity while ensuring consistency across diverse design needs. Our solutions become the rental inventory our customers can rely on to streamline their business operations, reducing their use of raw materials and carbon footprint associated with building event environments. Moreover, as a manufacturer focused on sustainable business practices, we are also able to support the end-user as well as our direct customers with cost-efficiencies and reduced environmental impact. Renting exhibit components can be less costly than owning, storing, and maintaining custom projects, and our lightweight and compact products help reduce costs and carbon emissions associated with shipping, drayage, and labor services.
Co-creating the future
We aim to inspire as much as possible. Yet to ensure sustainable growth, top-down ideas and decisions aren’t enough. We want to be ready for whatever the future holds. That’s why we’ve started the Inspirational Growth Project, in which we encourage team members to map and question current responsibilities, processes and tasks. We hold up a mirror to the organization and receive bottom-up feedback, inviting everyone in our company to help write our story. This project is supported by the European Union and the Flemish Government. In addition to the investment the organization makes, we can also count on the financial support from ESF (European Social Fund) and VCF (Flemish Co-financing Fund).
Extending impact
We don’t only look inwardly on how we can affect sustainable business practices. We prioritize partnerships with transportation and material sourcing partners who share our dedication to sustainability. By aligning with like-minded collaborators, we amplify our environmental and economic efforts, fostering a more responsible and resilient industry ecosystem.
