Homepage / Sustainability at Mer

At Mer, we understand that a viable future can only be achieved by living in harmony with nature and a regenerative use of its finite resources. We are energised by what we do, and people are fundamental to our business — making sustainability a clear company value to us.

That’s why we developed a business strategy based on sustainability.

sustainability principles

Our commitment to sustainability is a vital part of our business, as we seek to adopt a systematic approach and continuously improve sustainability aspects across all our activities.

Our sustainability management is based on three key principles; risk-based, shared value and business integrated.

Risk-based: We seek to minimise the negative impact of our activities on nature, people and societies and focus our efforts where the risk is highest.

Shared value: We seek to maximise the positive impact of our activities on nature, people, and societies.

Business integrated: We take a systematic approach, integrating environmental, climate, social and human rights considerations into key company activities and processes.
