The company Ifolor has been focusing on improving its own environmental performance for years. Since 2012, the well-known manufacturer of photo books, photo calendars, photo greeting cards, wall decorations and photo gifts of all kinds has already been working CO2-neutral: The ecological footprint is minimized and unavoidable emissions from business operations are fully offset. In April 2022, Swiss Climate again awarded the family-owned company the "Certified CO2 Neutral by Swiss Climate" label.

Detailed environmental relevance analysis carried out

As of June 2022, Ifolor will now receive initial certification to ISO 14001:2015 from SQS - the Swiss Association for Quality and Management Systems. The company has strived to apply the same systematic and continuous approach to environmental management as it does to its existing integrated management system for quality and data protection. Ifolor has held these two quality certificates since 1994 and 2003 respectively. For a thorough organization in setting up and implementing environmental management, Ifolor brought in Linz & Partner, an external consultancy, to prepare a detailed environmental relevance analysis in the areas of infrastructure, mobility and over the entire life cycle of products and services, and to meet the other elements of the standard.

Ifolor focuses on sustainable products

The key function holders within Ifolor AG have acquired the necessary knowledge through further training to continuously develop and optimize their commitment to environmental issues as part of the integrated management system and also to thoroughly train their employees. In this way, the company plays its part in protecting the environment by reducing waste, cutting energy consumption, using reusable materials and offsetting its business activities against climate change. The photo service provider also places great emphasis on the introduction and design of sustainable products. Founded in 1961, the family-owned company Ifolor is active in fifteen countries, employs around 250 people and generates annual sales of more than CHF 100 million. The popular photo products are manufactured at the Swiss headquarters in Kreuzlingen and in Kerava, Finland. Source and further information
