In a departure from previous goals, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals concern not only developing countries, but also countries such as Denmark. This means that we also have to ask ourselves what we can do to ensure sustainable development in our part of the world. Nobody can do everything on their own. We need to work together.
For Aktiv Guld, the global goals are good to use in order to clarify what we already do with regard to sustainability. They are also good to use as the basis for a discussion of where and what we will focus on in future in our efforts to do an even better job.
This means being realistic in terms of what we wish to contributeas opposed to what we can contribute.
In Aktiv Guld, we have chosen to focus on three of the Sustainable Development Goals. This does not mean that we believe the other goals are not important. It simply means that within these three goals, we can at least see that we are making a difference
Education has always been a priority for Aktiv Guld, and our courses are designed to maintain and further develop proud traditions and methods of craftsmanship.
This is why we’ve also chosen to highlight our efforts with regard to Sustainable Development Goal no. 4 concerning quality education.
Aktiv Guld works with manufacturers that focus on a good working environment. This means, among other things, that we’re always ready to propose solutions that limit the use of harmful chemicals, for example.
Aktiv Guld stresses that a place of employment must be designed according to the people working there – and not the other way round. This means that ergonomics are paramountonthe machines we sell. This, in turn, will mean that thoseusing them won’t suffer from injuries that shorten their workinglife, whilst at the same time enabling each employee towork more efficiently. This not only ensures decent work, but also economic growth, and, as such, why global goal no. 8 is also important to us.
Global goal no. 12 concerns responsible consumption and production, and is one of the key global goals for Aktiv Guld. This means utilising our natural resources in the best possible manner, responsible handling and use of chemicalsand – as a company – having focus on the fact that the products we carry must as far as possible have a sustainable profile.
At Aktiv Guld we focus on gold that is certified as being recycled.
Gold is still getting more complicated to extract and at the same time the extraction have serious consequences for the environment. The gold you buy at Aktiv Guld originates from recycling.
At Aktiv Guld we have made it easy for you to recycle gold and silver, all while helping you manage your expenses. With a metal account, you can use your old gold to keep costs down when purchasing metal, chains, and other findings at Aktiv Guld.
