Environmental responsibility

The environmental work of Stockmann’s divisions is based on the Group’s environmental policy as approved by Stockmann’s Board of Directors. In line with its environmental policy, Stockmann has given its commitment to promote and support the implementation of sustainable development principles in its business operations.

In its role as importer of products, Stockmann has producer liability, i.e. it is obligated to arrange the waste disposal and recycling of its products at its own cost. The Group has sought to do this by joining producer organizations, which are responsible at the practical level for the collection, recycling and waste management nationwide of products discarded by consumers. The Environmental Register of Packaging PYR Ltd is responsible for the collection and recycling of packaging and packaging waste, while  SERTY, an association responsible for recycling waste electrical and electronic equipment, attends to the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment and portable accumulators and batteries. Consumers can return products they no longer use to collection points maintained by these producer organizations free of charge.
