How they are made
Melexis has defined several sustainability topics that are material to our company and stakeholders. Among others is supporting responsible consumption and production. Melexis focuses on responsible supply chain, energy use, business ethics, product quality and safety, product lifecycle and conflict minerals. We deploy different initiatives to safeguard all of these topics during the development and production of our solutions.
We continuously look for ways to reduce our energy consumption and use of raw materials. Wherever possible, we use renewable energy and facilitate recycling. In 2023, 30% of the energy used at Melexis' largest sites came from renewable sources.
Melexis has an ISO 14001 certificate declaring we are a company with a low environmental impact. Our production and test sites don’t use chemical or other hazardous substances. To go even a step further, we keep track of our environmental performance data from the manufacturing sites. Knowing is growing. Each year we try to improve the outcome.
We maintain close collaboration with our customers to define opportunities to develop environmentally-friendly solutions. In the same way, we stay in close contact with our suppliers and contractors so they act environmentally responsible. Melexis requests environmental information records on all materials supplied. When selecting suppliers, we request ISO 14001 certification and key suppliers are required to sign a quality agreement.
Melexis commits to delivering products that don’t contain hazardous substances such as mercury, lead, cadmium etc. Although we are not required to register our products under REACH regulation, we still aim to achieve these REACH goals. To avoid any conflict of interest, we not only test our products internally, but have them checked annually by an external institute for hazardous substances.
