Corporate Social Responsibility
CSR: To have respect and take responsibility
Taking responsibility and showing respect lies deep in our history and way of doing business.
At Procudan, respect involves awareness that everyone has a role to play and a contribution to make in the joint effort to co-create value. For us, having and showing respect is about being considerate in the truest sense of the word.
Consideration and respect, in many ways, are the only means of advancement when we help each other excel in finding ever better solutions, and when we work together to forge alignment between what was promised and what was delivered.
Good long-term solutions are based on consideration all around. Consideration and respect for each individual’s background and for our shared world. That is the only way to develop value that is experienced on a personal level by all.
The earth's resources are valuable in more ways than one, and they should therefore be used wisely.
Focusing on optimal use of the raw materials, we help to reduce the amount of waste and residual products and ensure the reuse of raw materials as an alternative discarding them.
We prioritize sustainability and environmental considerations throughout the supply chain.
We have developed an ethically sound supply chain, where the strict requirements for sustainability and social responsibility of our partners and producers go hand in hand with food safety.
The requirements are described in our Code of Conduct, which is based on the principles of the UN Global Compact with requirements for e.g. child labor, human rights, discrimination, anti-corruption, environment and security.
The goal is for us to stop hunger, achieve food security, improve nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture.

Case: Innovative development project with a focus on work environment and workflows
We are looking into an innovative future where the manual processes in production are replaced with new and exciting technologies for the benefit of the working environment and workflows.
The project started in collaboration with the Danish Technological Institute, where a GTS specialist came by to assess the processes, uncover the challenges and gain insight into the automation solutions.
The specialist had great insight into, and understanding of, the challenges we had. Challenges of lifting smooth and heavy plates of 5kg, packing in cardboard boxes and putting cardboard boxes on pallets. These challenges were addressed, and the many good inputs for automating the processes have already been put in place.

Case: Focusing on key values and their relation to the world of sports
Procudan’s identity builds on four values:
Proactivity, Respect, Efficiency, and Well-being
The key values were communicated at the annual New Year gala event in January 2022, with special reference to the world of sports.
Any team needs to collaborate, help each member excel, and stay aware of member strengths and vulnerabilities.
Active part of the local community
We are an active part of the local community. With support and sponsorships for several local associations, we contribute to the development of local life and an active leisure life.
Education and generation of new knowledge is one of the cornerstones of developing shared value.
Therefore, we are approved as an internship placement company and are part of collaborations with pupils and students from educational institutions, where we jointly inspire and share our knowledge.

A healthy and safe workplace
It must be healthy to go to work, both physically and mentally, and the healthy work environment is a shared responsibility.
For us, passion and thriving at work are closely related. Forward momentum and a supportive environment foster achievements, collectively and individually.
We want the goal of such a supportive environment to be clearly visible in everything we do.
The pleasure of collaborating in a productive way, sharing the work, and achieving results together builds and develops in a positive manner when passionate people meet and co-create value
Safety is an absolute top priority in our daily work, and we optimize and evaluate processes ongoing. The employees are further trained so that they are equipped with the latest knowledge and tools that can contribute to a good, healthy and safe workplace.
