Caring for our surroundings, the environment & local communities

A sustainable future

Our caring perspective goes beyond supporting hearing and occupational health professionals with medical solutions. We care for our surroundings, the environment and the local communities in which we are based. We have a clear focus on people and culture, environment and climate, society and local community, as well as business ethics and governance for a brighter future.
