Sustainability Overview

Our Commitment

At FGV, we attach great importance to sustainable business practice, as sustainability is placed at the heart of FGV’s ethos. We are committed to respecting and upholding internationally-recognised human rights principles and standards stemming from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) as well as other applicable international human rights instruments.

In honouring these commitments, we draw on the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs), the International Labour Organization (ILO) Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work and other relevant ILO conventions. We pledge to no deforestation, no planting on peat and no exploitation (NDPE). As a responsible corporate citizen, we are also dedicated to contributing to the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
