Responsible production
As the cornerstone of our company, our production represents both our largest environmental impact and greatest potential to reduce our carbon footprint. We focus on five key areas: Waste recycling, energy, air, water, and materials. For example, all waste materials at our production facilities are sorted and separated to enable recycling. We have our own industrial wastewater treatment plants, while all production lines have air purification technology installed to protect workers. We are committed to reducing our overall energy consumption, and we only use environmentally friendly materials that meet the highest international standards (e.g. REACH, RoHS).
Respect for people
We are committed to providing fair working conditions for all our employees – no matter where they work or what they do for MBL. While the labor standards of our different markets can differ, we believe there are universal rights. We focus on four key areas: Decent work, good health & quality of life, less inequality, and charity. For example, we protect the health and wellbeing of all employees with safe and healthy working conditions (e.g. optimal ergonomics) and a universal medical care package. We also regularly review and adjust wages across MBL Group to ensure men and women receive equal pay for equal responsibility.
Economic growth, education, and innovation
Over the years, our growth journey has enabled us to provide more people with better opportunities. To positively impact our industry, market, and employees, we focus on three key areas: Responsible growth, education, and innovation. Our expansions into Poland and China have resulted in solid growth and reliable employment for hundreds of people – with more to come. We are constantly focused on providing education, training, and development opportunities for our employees. To help drive our industry forward, we continue to invest in our machine park and R&D department.
Supporting Ukraine
Like many around the world, our MBL Management and Team has great empathy for our Ukrainian neighbors following the outbreak of war in 2022. In cooperation with our customers, MBL has donated wheelchairs, wheelchair components, power generators, etc.
