Sterilex El Comité ESG establece cuatro pilares

1. Innovación de productos y sostenibilidad

We are committed to leading the industry in forward-thinking sanitation solutions focused on sustainability. In 2022, we will:

• Allocate 75% of the Sterilex NPD budget towards innovative products that have more robust sustainability benefits, while continuing to reduce foodborne pathogens
• Evaluar las materias primas utilizadas en los productos Sterilex en cuanto a su toxicidad, situación reglamentaria mundial e impacto general en los consumidores.
• Develop products that are better for the environment (produce better water discharge)
• Identificar formas de ayudar a nuestros clientes a alcanzar sus objetivos de sostenibilidad.
• Definir e informar sobre el ahorro de agua derivado del uso de productos Sterilex

2. Seguridad alimentaria, suministro y eficiencia

Driven by a focus on integrity and leadership, we are proud to deliver products and services that make a difference for humanity. In 2022, we commit to:

• Provide ROI tools that help customers quantify water, money, time, labor and equipment savings
• Elaborar y aplicar un código de conducta para los proveedores
• Produce products that continue to reduce foodborne pathogens, spoilage organisms and biopelícula, reducing food waste and increasing food shelf life

3. Esfuerzos filantrópicos

Our commitment to making a difference extends beyond food safety. We also strive to make a positive impact locally and globally. This year, we will better align our philanthropic efforts to our mission by providing employees with opportunities to:

• Juzgar ferias de ciencias locales
• Orientar y educar a los niños sobre la importancia de la ciencia y el saneamiento
• Apoyar la conservación y el acceso al agua en todo el mundo
• Donate at least 100 hours of employee time to giving back to our communities

4. Diversity, Equity + Inclusion (DEI)

We commit to fostering a collaborative, diverse and equitable culture woven through all aspects of our business and pledge to:

• Ensure that the current number of women in liderazgo positions (over 50%) never drops below 30%
• Pursue diverse recruiting channels for all open positions
• Conduct regular and consistent pay audits to ensure equity on all levels

CEO, Alex Josowitz, sums up the connection between our longstanding mission and current ESG commitments saying, “Since its inception, Sterilex has remained committed to the development of differentiated antimicrobial products specifically designed to eliminate resistant foodborne pathogens as well as increase productivity and environmental sustainability for our customers. Aside from the ability of our product innovations to increase food shelf life and decrease the use of water, energy and labor in the food production process, environmental and social consciousness is tightly woven into the culture of our organization. We have internal committees specifically dedicated to giving back to our communities, reducing our carbon footprint and ensuring our practices and policies support a diverse, equitable and inclusive environment. ESG principles are fundamental components of our core values and are key drivers in our business decisions.”
