Sustainable development is at the heart of our mission

Doing our share as a corporate citizen means actively promoting the best practices in sustainable development. In this era where even the smallest of gestures can make a difference, HydroSolution is doing everything it can to make sure each of its actions has the greatest reach.

Responsible governance and inclusive practices

At HydroSolution, we believe that implementing a responsible governance policy and inclusive practices is not only the right thing to do, it’s also essential to our long-term success. We’re therefore committed to creating a work environment that is inclusive, one where the perspectives and experiences of each employee are valued.

Policies that aim to promote collective well-being

By actively supporting causes that are important to us, we aim to promote a healthy, stimulating work environment. Our volunteer work and our clear-cut environmental policies are a testament to our dedication to having a positive impact on our community.

Corporate commitments

We take pride in supporting local companies, in building strong relationships with suppliers, and in offering exceptional extended warranties on our products. In doing so, we’ve been able to reduce the amount of waste produced by defective products and repairs.
