On the forefront of sustainability
At Etex, our construction solutions have sustainability at their core. We take responsibility for innovating whilst reducing our carbon footprint and integrating circularity principles wherever we can.
At Etex, we believe significant progress means taking big steps. We combat global challenges, like climate change, by focusing on the core strengths of our products. With our effective lightweight construction solutions and innovative building materials, we embrace the demand for high-quality, energy-efficient and sustainable living and working spaces. Urgent challenges need both short term and long term solutions. That is why we signed the United Nations Global Compact, prioritising sustainable development goals (SDG) with which we can make the biggest impact.
Etex fully commits to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), setting up six dedicated workstreams with ambitions for priority areas where our company has the biggest impact on the planet and society.
