OUR HISTORY

REPORTING ON OUR SUSTAINABILITY

Every year, Colart produces a robust sustainability report, which is a glimpse of our activities over the previous year. All Lindéngruppen companies are required to compile a report. It is vital for us to meet our ambition to make Sustainability at Colart business as usual and we endeavour to incorporate as many areas of the business as we can in the report.

The report is available in English and we will publish a version in French and in Chinese shortly. Please follow the link below to find out more.
