Sustainability
Foreword by the Managing Director
Our corporate purpose defines the common ground that unites all of us at Ingenia: “We place innovative thinking at the core of our development, to offer relevant and world-class solutions which will sustainably address current and future challenges.”
Our sustainability strategy is inspired by this purpose and every day, we lead our business to contribute to a more sustainable economy and society by:
- Improving our own environmental impacts and circularity
- Proposing solutions that contribute to protect our Earth,
- Helping build stronger communities and
- Reinforcing trust-based relationships with our stakeholders.
We do this, not because we are expected to, but because we believe it is the right thing to do.
To quote Peter Drucker “You can’t manage what you can’t measure.” Hence, we monitor and report on our progress towards our Planet Goals on an annual basis in the sustainability reports available below. We welcome suggestions and ideas from all our stakeholders to go even further on these commitments, so do not hesitate to contact us on [email protected].
Thank you for joining us on this journey.

Our ESG Commitments
As a key member of the Harel Mallac group, we are committed to achieving the Planet Goals by 2025.
We believe that good corporate citizenship starts at home, and in this sense, vow to make our workplace a diverse, safe and empowering one where every staff member is valued and respected.
We also go beyond our premises to contribute to initiatives in our vicinity, via the Fondation Harel Mallac, which focuses on education and youth empowerment in the region of Port Louis.
Our Pledges
We believe that the journey towards sustainability can only be successful if we join forces with other businesses, government, academia and civil society.
