Circular and sustainability policy of Van Raam
At Van Raam, we believe it is very important to work as circularly and sustainably as possible. In this article you can read more about Van Raam's circular and sustainable policy and how we want to achieve this.
Circular and sustainable policy
Van Raam is committed to working as sustainable as possible. This can also be expressed very precisely. The new factory is virtually energy-neutral by the use of solar panels, 25 sealed ground sources, heat pumps, LED lighting, the most modern insulation and triple Aglass.
In the factory there is a very consistent waste separation in the field of: paper, iron, plastic, tires, powder, batteries, chemicals, oil/water, cleaning cloths and toners.
In the factory, the sustainable designed Van Raam bicycles are powder coated in a very energy efficient way.
Sustainability
For Van Raam sustainability is to contribute in the long term on keeping people healthy and in motion. Where manufacturers of standard bicycles stop, Van Raam starts. That is what motivates us. We do this in a sustainable way. We contribute to various sustainable development goals (SDG's) and add multiple value. For Van Raam the SDG's below are the most important:
By focusing on real quality and having the best product, in cooperation with the customer, Van Raam is moving towards a healthy future. A healthy future for the user, for our employees, for the immediate environment in which we produce and for a better world. We choose long-term partnerships based on our standards, values and only the best is good enough on the road to circularity.
Our mission is therefore not coincidental:Van Raam offers people with a disability sustainable and contemporary mobility.
