In 2024, Nefab successfully navigated evolving customer demands and a dynamic geopolitical landscape. This achievement has been made possible through the continuous strengthening of our organization, driven by the professionalism and dedication of our people. Their unwavering focus on customer needs, strong leadership, commitment to sustainability, and effective execution of our strategy have been instrumental in the progress. Nefab's purpose "we save resources in supply chains for a better tomorrow" is deeply rooted in our heritage and value proposition, serving as a unifying mission that inspires everything we do. Guided by our core values; Simplicity, Respect, and Empowerment, we operate in a global team of 5,000 dedicated employees to deliver excellence across all areas of our business.
Diversity, equity, and inclusion
Nefab is a people centric company where we strive to create an environment where our employees are appreciated, respected and valued for their uniqueness. As part of our people strategy, we monitor the share of female in senior positions. We strive to maintain transparency as well as high business ethics.
Health and safety
At Nefab health and safety is our highest priority. We firmly believe that no employee should experience injury or ill health due to their work. We understand the vital connection between outstanding safety performance and operational success. A safe work environment not only minimizes incidents and accidents but also enhances manufacturing efficiency, making it crucial for stable, sustainable, and profitable operations.
Training and development
Nefab is a knowledge-based company, and our employees are fundamental to our success. Continued learning is a natural part of our strategy, to maintain and enhance our know-how we offer internal training programs, such as the Nefab Training Platform (NTP) where there are e-learning courses on various topics such as sustain ability, safety, code of conduct, our offerings and more. As part of supporting employees development, we are focusing on Functional Excellence, Operational Excellence and Leadership Development.
Bring the Purpose to Life Initiative
In 2024 we executed “Bring the Purpose to Life” as a key initiative under Nefab’s wider sustainability strategy. There is an urgent need to address global warming, and our customers demand stronger sustainability enhancements. The aim of this initiative is to raise awareness on climate change and to get Nefab employees around the world to engage with our purpose.
This initiative unfolded in 3 phases:
- Climate Change Training at Nefab locations for all employees, in partnership with an NGO, Climate Fresk were executed in 2024.
The local workshops identified areas of sustainability improvements and collected more than 1,000 new ideas. - During 2024 we implemented a selection of the ideas of sustainability improvements on a local level and identified three ideas for global execution
- In 2025, 3 ideas will be implemented globally: Promote Reusable solutions, Recycling of our Waste and Green Days with customers. Those initiatives driven by our 70 community managers will continue to engage not only Nefab employees but also partners and customers into our purpose.
