Altrum’s Environmental Social Governance (ESG)
The Altrum team and its leadership have committed to providing better solutions within our business practices to support a greener governance model. Our CEO has delivered a statement that has been the guiding voice in our initiative to better our environmental accountability:
“Altrum’s mission is to help organizations celebrate achievements and inspire people. Now more than ever, organizations, including Altrum, are conscious of minimizing their impact on the environment. Altrum is committed to help clients celebrate achievements and inspire people while addressing their concerns about the environmental impact of their actions.” – Louis-David Bourque, CEO at Altrum
In tandem with offering environmentally friendly products that contribute to conscious consumerism, we have committed ourselves to grow our ESG by partnering with Englobe. This external firm has helped Altrum assess its carbon footprint and identified opportunities to improve for us to help meet our carbon reduction goals.
In adopting business strategies that align with improving sustainability principles and practices, we will join a collective global effort to help preserve the long-term viability of our planet and its people. For the past decade, Altrum has been making significant changes across the business to support our corporate and social responsibility principles with accountability, transparency, and ethical behavior. Since January 2021, we have started our commitments to reduce carbon emissions, but have committed to more significant strides in our business practice and operations to greater minimize our carbon footprint that will help offset climate change, with five key steps.

Internal packaging will utilize recycled, and recyclable shrink wraps to minimize unhealthy environmental impacts, in comparison to our past shipping materials such as plastic bags and bubble wraps. (Full rollout of this improvement will be complete before the end of 2022).
Less Material Waste
Our recycled boxes that deliver your environmentally responsible deal toys and awards will help minimize our carbon footprint by not implementing as many containers when being packaged to you.
Compact and efficient – delivery will come in smaller and accurately sized boxes, which will lower the volume of shipment and create a lower carbon impact.
