ABENA, YOU, & THE ENVIRONMENT More Than 40 years of Certified Sustainable & Skin-Friendly Products At Abena, our mission is to provide the most e ective and gentle line of sustainable healthcare solutions on the market. Our responsibly-sourced products are made from sustainable materials and are certified hypoallergenic, so they are gentle for you and the environment. Each year we voluntarily invite inspectors to perform the most stringent and rigorous tests available on all facets of our manufacturing lifecycle, encompassing raw material acquisition, production, consumption, and waste. WE HAVE RECEIVED MULTIPLE THIRD PARTY CERTIFICATIONS. THEREFORE, YOU CAN CONDUCT BUSINESS WITH US WITH A CLEAN CONSCIENCE. ASTHMA ALLERGY NORDIC It can be di cult to assess allergy risks by yourself - for many products, it is not possible at all, as manufacturers are not required to declare all ingredients. If you choose products labelled with the Asthma Allergy Nordic label, we have done the hard work for you. Products with the prestigious blue label contain no perfumes, reducing the risk of allergy. NORDIC SWAN ECOLABEL The Nordic Swan Ecolabel is a voluntary third-party ecolabel certification that evaluates a product's impact on the environment throughout the entire life cycle. The label guarantees among other things that climate requirements are taken into account and that CO 2 emissions (and other harmful gasses) are limited. FOREST STEWARDSHIP COUNCIL FSC™ (Forest Stewardship Council) is an international non-governmental organization dedicated to the promotion of responsible forest management worldwide. FSC™-certified products are made from raw materials from well-managed forests and responsible sources. The label’s traceability and integrity are upheld through stringent control measures, and by choosing FSC-certified products, you help take care of forests and the people and wildlife that call them home. www.fsc.org. UN GLOBAL COMPACT The United Nations Global Compact is a United Nations initiative that encourages businesses worldwide to align strategies and operations with universal principles on human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption, and take actions that advance societal goals, while ultimately reporting on the implementation of these policies. 4
