Focus Areas Environmental Responsibility and Diversity & Inclusion
From our holistic ESG approach to sustainability, we want to highlight two focus topics that are particularly important to our employees, our planet, and our communities: Environmental Responsibility and Diversity & Inclusion.
Developing Our Sustainability Strategy
Our Vibracoustic ESG Council includes top management representatives and acts as a cross-functional forum for sustainability. The council consists of representatives from business functions, such as human resources, finance, compliance, health, safety, and environment (HSE), sales, supply chain management and operations. They strategize and direct sustainability initiatives for their departments and communicate these important topics within their teams. The council regularly meets to drive measures and review progress. With support from all our locations, the ESG Council evaluates outcomes and initiates new steps to ensure continued progress.
Vibracoustic supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as our call to action for sustainable improvements. Our sustainability strategy features goals that are cascaded through our organization and monitored both globally and locally. Additionally, we share best practices across our sites.
We All Drive Sustainability
We encourage all our people to take part in our sustainability initiatives and to help inform and enrich our strategy. Our local team members take accountability to shape and deliver change at their own Vibracoustic locations. We appreciate their ambition to implement improvements – large or small – across all areas of our operations. Even the smallest improvements can add up to a great result in the end.
Our ViBes Safety Rules Implemented at all Locations
A safe working environment for all employees is one of our priorities at Vibracoustic. Our vision and goal is that everyone arrives at and leaves from work safely – every single day, everywhere and at any time. All our safety efforts and initiatives to achieve this goal are summarized under the name ViBeS – Vibracoustic Be Safe.
Taking Action to Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle in Querétaro, Mexico
Our Querétaro, Mexico, team has developed a creative solution to upcycle pallets. Instead of discarding these materials, employees can submit applications to receive the repurposed wood for their personal home projects. This initiative transforms potential waste into valuable resources, promoting sustainability and creative reuse.
Emission Reduction in Wuxi, China
Our team in Wuxi, China achieved a 13% reduction in scope 1 & 2 CO₂ rate emissions from 2023 to 2024 by focusing on updating compressed air networks, dryers, motors, generators, ventilation, heating and air conditioning systems. This included the implementation of a digital energy control system for transparent and automatic tracking of energy consumption.
We Care for our Communities
Vibracoustic is focused on supporting the communities that we live and work in. Whether it is planting trees or creating a safe learning environment, our people are taking steps to give back to their local schools, parks, and nature preserves.
Our people in Taubaté, Brazil have helped to clean up a local youth center where students can engage with a wide range of enrichment activities.
Our people in Rayong, Thailand helped to construct a water tower bringing clean water to a nearby school.
