Taking sustainable actions now to meet tomorrow’s challenges
At SNP, we believe that a company and its employees must embrace the principles of integrity, ethics and personal responsibility. The ethical requirements of a company operating globally and across cultures and sectors of society are demanding. In a complex environment of laws, guidelines, social beliefs and our entrepreneurial goals, it is vital that we constantly question our actions and address any possible consequences.
We appreciate each other’s differences and strengths, as well as weaknesses, and are always trying to become better versions of ourselves. As an enterprise, we strive to make a difference not only for our customers but also for the environment and local communities. As humans, we simply care about others and believe in paying back to society. Our aim is to set out SNP’s commitment to sustainable actions to meet tomorrow’s challenges, today.
Our corporate values
Energy consumption and Carbon footprint
As part of its sustainability reporting, SNP calculated and disclosed its energy consumption, energy mix, and carbon footprint in accordance with the ESRS for the first time for the 2024 fiscal year.
Energy consumption and mix of the SNP Group, FY 2024
GHG intensity
Carbon footprint of the SNP Group, FY 2024
The total greenhouse gas emissions were calculated in accordance with ESRS, including gross emissions for scope 1, 2 and 3.
The scope 2 emissions were calculated and reported as both location-based and market-based emissions.
Supporting non-profit organizations and helping children
To support those in need, every year we donate to a charitable organization that supports ill children and their caregivers.
Among those we have funded recently are the Waldpiraten, a non-profit organization holding summer camps for children and teenagers suffering from cancer. During their stay, children can recover after a long therapy, gain courage and build up their strength – for a way back into “normal” everyday life.
Other organizations that we have recently backed include Autistic Center Andreas, which provides holistic support to people on the autism spectrum, as well as Sibirka – a center for social services that helps disabled people.
Responding to the world's pressing matters
We are not only focused on local initiatives – we also support important causes in other regions.
We supported the SolarBuddy program Energy Poverty, aimed at providing access to safe and reliable energy in the remote regions of the world, as energy shortages particularly affect children, their education and their well-being.
We are taking a strong stance against the war in Ukraine. We are committed to helping the people who are most affected by the Russian regime’s war of aggression on Ukraine by providing local support via three aid organizations in Germany, Austria and Slovakia.
Taking things into our own hands: volunteering
We also believe in giving back to society by rolling up our sleeves and volunteering. Our employees in Bratislava regularly participate in the Our City (Naše Mesto) community project, where they clean up and refurbish public spaces.
Whether it is painting fences, renovating nurseries or just picking up garbage, we are there and happy to help.
Healthy body, healthy mind – sponsoring sports
Supporting sports is a matter close to our hearts. Sports make you strong, promote solidarity and are an important foundation for a healthy lifestyle.
We have been a proud sponsor and namesake of the SNP dome in Heidelberg since 2021. It offers young athletes a modern training and playing facility. The SNP dome can accommodate around 5,000 spectators, and it has quickly become an important location in the Heidelberg area for both sports and cultural events. We are pleased to be able to help make this experience possible and hope that our commitment will encourage children and young people to take part in more sports.
