ESG brings together three key pillars: environmental responsibility, social commitment, and transparent corporate governance. Together, they form the foundation for sustainable and future-oriented business practices.
Gallmetzer HealthCare AG aligns its actions with these principles with the goal of shaping and continuously improving ecological responsibility, social fairness, and transparent structures.
Gallmetzer HealthCare AG takes responsibility for the environment and climate through concrete measures in energy sourcing, building design and product development. At the core of this effort is a holistic approach to sustainability, aligned with international standards and continuously evolving.
Gallmetzer HealthCare AG covers 100% of its electricity needs with certified green energy.
For gas consumption, the company uses TÜV-certified GreenGas, with CO₂ emissions offset through investments in verified climate protection projects (e.g. Gold Standard, Verified Carbon Standard).
The company is currently evaluating a full transition to renewable energy – including the installation of its own photovoltaic system. Technical documentation and expert assessments are already in preparation.
The goal is to generate part of the future energy supply directly from solar power.
The company building was designed with climate- and environmentally conscious criteria.
Green areas inside and around the site, as well as a nature-inspired outdoor layout, help improve the local microclimate. Sealed surfaces were reduced to promote natural rainwater infiltration.
Our subsidiaries put this principle into practice every day in their operations.
Promis S.R.L. develops sustainable oral care products that combine ecological materials with scientifically proven effectiveness. Packaging is made from FSC® Mix-certified cardboard, and the tubes use biobased plastic derived from sugarcane. The toothbrushes are made of up to 90% plant-based raw materials, while dental floss and cases are produced entirely from recycled plastic.
Gallmetzer HealthCare also promotes environmental protection in shipping: recycled cardboard boxes and reused or pre-existing filling material are used to avoid energy-intensive recycling processes and significantly reduce waste.
Social responsibility
For Gallmetzer HealthCare AG, sustainable governance means value-based, long-term corporate management that combines responsibility, transparency, and future security. As a family-run company, we make decisions collectively, focusing on continuity, sustainable growth, and social impact.
Clear leadership structures, compliance with legal and ethical standards, and proactive risk management form the foundation of our approach.
As a company in the healthcare sector, Gallmetzer HealthCare AG assumes responsibility that goes beyond products. Our aim is to make a lasting and meaningful contribution to a healthier and fairer society.
We regularly support social initiatives through financial donations and product contributions in the fields of medicine and oral hygiene – especially in regions with limited access to health education and preventive care.
Through the Gallmetzer Foundation, established by our group, we continuously launch projects aimed at empowering and supporting disadvantaged communities.
Fair working conditions are a top priority across our entire company network – both for our own employees and along the supply chain.
We also take our responsibility towards end users seriously: we develop safe, effective, and accessible products, promote health education, and actively work to improve access to prevention and care.
