ProtACT – Sustainability at ORTOVOX
If not us, then who?
For many years, we have been working diligently to protect both people and planet – and we've made significant progress! The collaboration in our network with partners, customers, athletes, ambassadors, friends and even with our competitors is stronger than ever. Nevertheless, there's plenty of room for improvement. With our ProtACT sustainability strategy, we have created a framework that we have embedded throughout the entire company. We’re committed to our responsibility.
Kathrin Bauer, Director of Sustainability
