Limiting our impact on both the broader environment and our own environment.
This goal is addressed by providing training, measuring the impact of our operations, and optimizing performance at facilities—not only large distribution centers—but also offices and branches. Many of the Group’s most recent buildings meet such demanding standards asLeadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), while many of the older ones have been renovated to enhance energy efficiency or in some cases boost recycling.
As a consecration of our focus, Sonepar China’s Headquarter uses human centric lighting, lux adjusted windows blinds, modular meeting rooms, and highly advance facial recognition system, allowing us to reduce our electricity consumption while benefiting from an associate-friendly atmosphere and environment.
Going further, we organize tree plantings and “green endeavors” with our associates, helping remote area to gain access to the grid or providing courses to children in needs.
Being a socially responsible company.
This goal has characterized Sonepar China from its inception. In day-to-day practice, it is reflected in
our work to foster the inclusion of people with disabilities, as well as in countless initiatives carried
out by our subsidiaries to serve nearby communities in the field.
In HK, our operating company, Supermoon has been awarded many years in a row, Caring Company, by the Hong Kong Council Of Social Services, for its dedication in caring for the community, associates and the environment.
Apart from this recognition, our local staffs participate also in volunteering work that aims at bringing power and hope to the less fortunate families in society.
Taking care of team members.
Throughout the Group, this is a self-evident commitment that spans safety, training, making the most of people’s qualities, encouraging personal growth, promoting well-being in the workplace, and embracing diversity.
At WitJoint Automation, training takes top priority, with all associates enrolled in a wide variety of trainings, expanding human possibilities through digitalization, and automation is a driver for this highly advanced and performing team.
