Sustainability

We believe that our purpose – to Make a Difference for the Better – can only be achieved by innovating, collaborating, and rethinking how we do business to have a better impact.

Our purpose also guides us on how to become better corporate citizens and to have at heart the planet we wish to leave to upcoming generations.

We have thus identified 13 objectives we commit to reaching by 2025: the Harel Mallac Planet Goals. Aligned with the United Nations SDGs, they constitute our roadmap for the Better.
