Recently we embarked on a study with the University of Maastricht to analyse our product life cycle.
Without our people there would be no Jacobi Group. Our people are without doubt our most important asset and so we continually invest our time, money and efforts into keeping them safe at work, helping them to progress in both career and home life, and encouraging a healthy work:life balance.
As a large organisation, it’s critical that we think about how our operations could affect our planet. We put in measures to make sure it’s always easy for our employees to make the best choices for the environment and refine our processes to make them as sustainable as we can.
At Jacobi we look at all steps of our production and reactivation processes to ensure they’re as environmentally sensitive as possible. We’re continually researching new renewable materials and developing our processes to make them even more sustainable.
