GF strengthens its sustainability impact through strategic partnerships that extend well beyond our own operations. By collaborating closely with customers and suppliers, we translate shared ambitions into tangible results – driving innovation, lowering emissions across the value chain, and creating lasting value for our stakeholders.
Customer collaborations
GF partners with key customers to accelerate sustainable transformation. Through joint initiatives, we co-develop and co-innovate solutions that improve energy and water efficiency, reduce emissions, and advance circular business models.
At the core of this approach is our Sustainability Alliance, a structured collaboration platform that aligns ambitions, expertise, and measurable targets. By sharing accountability, we turn sustainability goals into tangible outcomes. These partnerships help customers achieve their climate and resource objectives while establishing scalable best practices that can be replicated across industries.
GF aims to deliver 10 sustainability collaborations with key customers by 2030, guided by a clear roadmap that aligns divisions, market segments, and key account structures to ensure coordinated priorities and efficient resource allocation. Our focus is on co-innovation projects across six strategic areas: Net Zero & Decarbonization, Water Security & Hygiene, Circular Economy, Sustainable Materials, Energy Efficiency, and Digitalization. Initiatives will be assessed using a standardized sustainability impact criteria framework to support consistent decision-making and drive measurable environmental and social outcomes.
Supplier partnerships
GF collaborates closely with key suppliers to drive measurable sustainability improvements across the value chain. Through structured partnerships, we accelerate emissions reduction and strengthen focused environmental performance.
Our approach includes sustainability assessments, capability building, enhanced data transparency, and jointly defined action plans. By aligning expectations and fostering continuous improvement, we address climate and resource challenges together to reinforce responsible sourcing.
Responsible Supply Chain
GF carries out comprehensive due diligence across its value chain, from material sourcing to supplier assessment, to ensure adherence to high environmental and social standards. We expect our suppliers to share these commitments and embed sustainability into their daily operations.
Our responsible sourcing approach includes structured sustainability evaluations, corrective action plans, and when necessary, alternative sourcing decisions to mitigate risks. We also rely on independent ratings, such as EcoVadis, to enhance transparency and accountability. Through these measures, we safeguard the integrity of our products, promote responsible business conduct, and enable informed choices for our customers and stakeholders.
GF Conflict Minerals process
GF is committed to sourcing raw materials responsibly and ensuring that products do not contribute to armed conflict or human rights abuses. Our approach is built on a strong corporate policy, a dedicated internal standard, and strict expectations for our business partners. We define clear objectives and targets, conduct structured due diligence, and require suppliers to disclose the origin of raw materials and avoid sources affected by embargoes or other restrictions.
