Responsibility

At General & Pharma being responsible means being a reliable company towards our suppliers and clients, being constantly engaged in offering quality products and services, and operating in a constant and sustainable synergy with our community and with our partners.

Thanks to this belief, over the years we have developed our own approach towards achieving sustainability based on attention, control, innovation, and a positive outlook for the future: sustainability is an essential prerogative of our strategy.

Code of conduct: a code of conduct shared with our suppliers guarantees an efficient and effective collaboration, a relationship of trust that allows us to guarantee our customers products and services of the highest quality.

Sustainability

Sustainability is one of the main factors in the concrete choices and the daily work of General & Pharma, in its business practices, and in its relationships with customers and stakeholders: in choosing low-impact products and processes, constantly innovating for the improvement of production, we follow the perspective of continuous and sustainable development.

Environmental sustainability

General & Pharma has chosen a policy that aims to reduce its environmental impact, adopting suppliers with high environmental and ethical standards and a socially responsible supply chain, reducing waste of resources.

Reduction of environmental impacts: our new product line - the Veterinary Instant Soup - has a low environmental impact, with lower energy consumption. Measures have been taken to reduce the use of plastic and paper and energy saving policies have been undertaken.

Towards CO2-neutral production: the new production site will allow General&Pharma to become CO2-neutral by 2025.

Towards sustainable packaging: partnerships with companies specialised in the development of sustainable packaging materials, put General&Pharma at the forefront in the use of innovative, compostable, and recyclable packaging.

Our contribution to green logistics: the optimisation of loading spaces, the development of forms of administration with significant reductions in product weight and the reduced use of water in the finished product will allow the lowering of CO2 dispersed into the environment during distribution.

Social sustainability

General & Pharma aims at a working environment where people are able to follow their attitudes and demonstrate their skills and potential.

Applying principles of respect for independence and gender diversity, General & Pharma is committed to ensuring the well-being of its employees and preserving work-life balance through a substantial smart working program.

General & Pharma actively participates in training and skill-building initiatives of technical nature, conferences, meetings and has made important agreements with prestigious institutions in the production and pharmaceutical fields.

General & Pharma is a pet-friendly company: many studies have shown that pets in the office have a positive effect in reducing stress and promote socialisation with colleagues. General & Pharma allows the animals of its employees to enter the office premises.
