Orama sustainability plan and recent actions
Orama Group has set out steps it says it is taking to strengthen sustainability across its businesses, including energy changes at selected sites and the use of Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) monitoring.
The group includes Argus, Hyfire and Ramtech.
Managing Director Giorgio Koursaris said: “In recent years, we’ve taken concrete steps to embed sustainability into our operations, guided by a clear and actionable improvement plan.
“We’re proud to share that two of our companies are now certified by EcoVadis, a globally recognised sustainability rating platform.
“Internally, we use a robust ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) framework to assess progress and identify areas for growth.
“All initiatives at Orama are aligned with Halma’s Key Strategic Objectives (KSOs), emphasizing structure, reliability and long-term value.
“Our shared purpose and values ensure a unified approach to sustainability excellence across the entire group.”
EcoVadis results and what Orama links them to
Orama said Argus and Ramtech have obtained EcoVadis certifications, with Argus receiving a Bronze Medal and Ramtech receiving a Silver Medal.
The EcoVadis assessment is described as covering policies on the environment, labour rights, ethics and sustainable sourcing.
The certifications are presented as part of an improvement approach linked to corporate social responsibility.
