ProtACT – Sustainability at ORTOVOX
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.
Katrin Bauer, Director of Sustainability
“ORTOVOX is a brand that comes with high expectations – from our customers, our partners, and ourselves included. We apply the same rigorous, self-critical approach to sustainability to meet our own standards and justify the trust we’ve earned.”
