What does sustainability mean to us?

At ViSSEVASSE, our vision is to create a healthy and responsible workplace where we can help make a positive difference in the world. To us, sustainability is a holistic concept that embraces people, nature, and the way we run our business.

We believe that responsible everyday choices, big and small, can create lasting change over time. We consciously focus on quality over quantity and aim to challenge the buy-and-dispose culture by creating products designed to last for many years.

Our sustainability strategy is built around three key focus areas, which together guide our efforts:

  • Good conditions for everyone working with ViSSEVASSE - because presence begins with people, and fair, safe, and respectful conditions for our employees and partners form the foundation of responsible business.
  • Responsibility in our relationship with nature - because nature inspires us, and we want to use its resources with respect and care.
  • Spreading presence and improving everyday life for people locally and globally - because we want to give back and support initiatives that create community, care, and better living conditions.

We can’t do everything perfectly, but we are committed to continuously developing and improving.

In our work with sustainability, we strive to be transparent about our choices, set clear goals, and take responsibility for how we impact people, nature, and the world around us.

An extensive certification

B Corp certified

In June 2023, we became a B Corp certified company.  

B Corp is a global movement of companies, who want to contribute positively to the world through their business.

To become a B Corp certified company, you must go through an extremely compressive questionnaire (assessment).

We have learned a lot in the process of completing the assessment.

It has shed light on the areas where we have already made great efforts and has given us inspiration for where we can get better.

As there is a great demand for the B Corp certification, we are extremely proud that we are now certified and most importantly, that as a B Corp certified company, we're part of a global community of businesses that meet high standards of social and environmental impact.

Responsibility in our relationship with nature

We want to take responsibility for the nature that inspires us every day. At ViSSEVASSE, this means using nature’s resources with respect.

We carefully select our materials, reuse everything we can, and work purposefully to reduce waste and plastic consumption. Our goal is to continuously improve so we can help nature thrive.

Good conditions for everyone working with ViSSEVASSE

At ViSSEVASSE, we believe that presence begins with people. That’s why we work to ensure that everyone who works with or for us has fair and safe conditions, no matter where they are in the value chain.

We believe in dialogue, respect, and trust as the foundation of strong collaboration. Our goal is to create a working life that allows space for calm, growth, and balance for everyone who works with ViSSEVASSE.

Spreading presence and improving everyday life for people locally and globally

We want to extend our purpose of creating presence in everyday life beyond what our products alone can reach. That’s why we support initiatives that improve people’s daily lives and foster community, care, and hope - both locally and globally.

We work with both product donations and financial support, and we support initiatives of all sizes, from larger projects to smaller ones.
