Sustainability & Social Responsibility

Nores takes social responsibility seriously, and continuously works to help ensure that both our members and suppliers contribute to a sustainable industry.

We make demands on ourselves, our suppliers and partners to ensure that we all use our resources, people and the environment in the most gentle way possible. We work and to conclude agreements with partners that help simplify the sustainability work of our members.
