What is sustainable business?

Sustainable entrepreneurship is better known as corporate social responsibility (CSR). It is a term we hear more and more often, in every industry. In this article, we explain what it is and how we contribute to it at HB RTS.

What is sustainable business?

A company that practices corporate social responsibility takes into account its direct and indirect impact on the climate, human rights, and all other social and ethical aspects of our economy. 

As a company, you are part of a larger whole, and every choice you make has an impact on people inside and outside the company, as well as on the environment and the local economy. Sustainable entrepreneurship starts with being aware of your place within this whole. The next step is to make sustainable choices to reduce your negative impact on society and the climate, thereby contributing to a better world.

Why sustainable business practices?

Corporate social responsibility is very important in today's society. Everyone must do their part, and companies in particular are expected to constantly work toward sustainable choices.

Sustainable business practices not only benefit society as a whole, but also your company. One way to reduce your negative impact on the environment is to reduce transport kilometers. This is better for the environment, but it also saves you a lot of money. Ultimately, it's a win-win situation. 

HB RTS helps you reduce transport kilometers, partly thanks to our strategically located sites. 

Another example is the use of sustainable packaging, such as plastic crates and pallets. These have a long lifespan and are ultimately cheaper than single-use packaging such as boxes and plastic bags. By making this choice, you are also contributing to a healthier planet and saving a lot of money.

Is sustainable business mandatory?

Corporate social responsibility is not mandatory. However, certain industries may have guidelines that companies must follow to ensure that they automatically make the right choices and operate in a sustainable manner. 

Even though it is not mandatory, we can only recommend that you familiarize yourself with the various ways of doing business sustainably.
