Communication from our CEO
Sustainability is the foundation upon which DOVISTA is built. As part of the VKR Group, the Model Company objectives established by Villum Kann Rasmussen fifty- six years ago are the same governing principles driving every aspect of the company today. These objectives speak directly to people, planet and prosperity, identi- fying the desire to create products that benefit society, treat all employees and stakeholders better than most companies, and enable financial independence. Focus on sustainability Our focus on sustainability is increasingly mirroring what we see in society. As sustainable window and door people, our work actively contributes to achieving sustainable impact and the United Nations Sustaina- ble Development Goals. Good health and wellbeing are supported by our purpose of bringing daylight, fresh air and wellbeing into people’s everyday lives. Our products provide the opportunity to capitalize on sustainable passive energy while ensuring energy efficiency in new and renovated buildings. Our strate- gic approach to sustainability also ensures sustainable consumption and production, as well as contributing to climate action by setting important CO 2 reduction targets to limit global temperature increases. DOVISTA is currently on an exciting growth journey, which gives us the unique opportunity to maximize
sustainable impact. In 2021 we grew to over 7,500 employees, meaning that DOVISTA is now the largest manufacturer of vertical windows and exterior doors in Europe. We have expanded our market presence and our product portfolio through the acquisition of five new brands in Europe. We have increased production capacity and added expertise and local market insight to benefit the entire organisation and our customers. We are providing innovative and sustainable solutions. By placing the right windows in the right places, we are achieving energy efficiency, CO 2 reductions and a bet- ter indoor climate for more families than ever before. Rooted in our CLEAR Strategy, we are investing in processes and capabilities that will enable our busi- ness to harness synergies moving forward. Over the coming year, we will focus on establishing new base- lines and streamlining unified processes, creating a solid data foundation. Our focus will also be directed towards knowledge sharing and learning, identify- ing best practice sustainability initiatives across the organisation and working diligently towards setting and achieving important targets. With Distinctive Brands and Shared Excellence, we will participate actively in building a future where business and sustainability go hand in hand, making windows part of the solution.
