Sustainability And Commitment In Racine Mode
Racine Mode places sustainability at the core of its business model. As a responsible company, we integrate the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into all our strategies and operations. We believe every action counts in building a more equitable, environmentally respectful, and socially valuable future.
Good Health And Well-Being
Health and well-being are essential for the development of strong, resilient communities. We are committed to promoting these values by supporting local health initiatives, such as cancer prevention awareness campaigns, including our active participation in Pink October. Additionally, we have implemented workplace wellness programs, focusing on mental and physical health, to foster a healthy work environment for our employees.
Gender Equality
Gender equality is a critical factor for inclusive and sustainable development. At Racine Mode, we have made strong commitments to ensure equal treatment and opportunities across our teams. We actively promote the inclusion of women in all company roles, particularly in traditionally underrepresented areas such as production and technical management. Moreover, we conduct training on gender-related issues and support external initiatives advocating for equal opportunities.
Affordable and Clean Energy
The energy transition is central to our efforts to reduce environmental impact. We have initiated a project to install photovoltaic panels on our production sites, aiming to generate a portion of our electricity from renewable sources. This initiative is part of a long-term vision to decrease reliance on fossil fuels, with an ambitious goal: to source 100% of our energy consumption from renewables by the end of 2025. This shift reduces our CO2 emissions and ensures a more responsible management of energy resources.
Decent Work And Economic Growth
Providing decent work is at the heart of our growth strategy. We implement human resource policies focused on respect, safety, and employee well-being. We invest in continuous training to ensure every team member can thrive in an environment that encourages personal and professional growth. Additionally, Racine Mode ensures our partners and suppliers adhere to decent work standards, guaranteeing fair and safe working conditions throughout the supply chain.
Reduced Inequalities
Reducing social and economic inequalities is essential to building a fairer society. Racine Mode takes specific actions to foster inclusion and equal opportunities, such as supporting training programs for marginalized populations and actively recruiting individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds. We collaborate with local and international NGOs to support projects aimed at reducing social and economic disparities, with a particular focus on poverty alleviation and universal access to education.
Responsible Consumption and Production
To ensure the sustainability of our production model, we have established a strict waste management policy with the goal of achieving zero waste by 2027. We incorporate circular economy principles into our production processes, reducing resource consumption and limiting waste generation. Strategies are also in place to optimize material usage and minimize waste across all production lines, ensuring more efficient use of available resources.
Climate Action
In response to the climate emergency, we have taken concrete measures to reduce our carbon footprint. These include developing an internal action plan to lower greenhouse gas emissions, modernizing infrastructure, optimizing energy management, and implementing environmentally friendly production practices. Additionally, we engage our employees and partners in adopting eco-friendly behaviors, raising awareness about the importance of the energy transition and sustainable practices.
Partnerships for The Goals
Achieving the SDGs requires strong and strategic partnerships. Racine Mode collaborates with various local and international stakeholders, including NGOs, innovative businesses, and public institutions, to amplify the impact of its actions. Through these partnerships, we share resources, exchange best practices, and strengthen our sustainability initiatives. We believe that by joining forces, we can make a meaningful difference toward a fairer and more sustainable world.
