What do we want to achieve
We work for health, safety, and the environment in line with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Through careful planning and continuous improvement, we take responsibility for the environment in all our projects. We choose environmentally friendly materials, use resources efficiently, and create value through solutions that contribute to a sustainable future.
For us, sustainability is an ongoing process. Small but important steps every day help us improve, even if the work is never truly finished.

This confirms that we have taken important steps towards a green and sustainable future. But it does not stop there, we are committed to continuously improving our climate and environmental work, with requirements in the areas of work environment, waste, energy, procurement and transport, to contribute to a greener footprint.

What do Compass Fairs do?
We follow the Transparency Act which requires companies of significant size to report on human rights and working conditions. We have developed our own procedures that meet the requirements of the law and through our Code of Ethics we impose requirements on our suppliers and partners. Compass Fairs continuously works to implement measures to achieve specific goals.
Expectations of accountability of suppliers and business partners
We aim for our suppliers and partners to sign our Supplier Code of Conduct, on respecting human rights, labour standards and environmental responsibility. This should ensure that they meet the same standards that we set for our own business.
We are constantly working to assess the risks associated with the Company's activities and the use of our business associates (suppliers and partners).
