Aside from working towards improving the population's nutrition as well as researching new and better formulas on a daily basis, Laboratorios Ordesa maintains its commitment and responsibility with society.
At Laboratorios Ordesa, we place firm emphasis on operating in a responsible way with each and every one of our interest groups, from an economic, social and environmental standpoint.
We are able to accomplish this mission thanks to our talented, creative, motivated and effective organization.
Our understanding of social responsibility goes further than merely doing what is expected by law, beyond fulfilling obligations, and rather into investing more in human capital, our environment, and our relationship with those around us.
Food and toy collection campaign
Our campaign "La fam no fa vacances" (Hunger doesn't go on holiday), makes a collection for food from staff over the summer period. All the food collected is donated to the Barcelona Food Bank Foundation.
During the Christmas period, Food Collection campaigns are set up and taken to a collection point in the shop Aliments de Sant Boi), while the SPANISH RED CROSS and CASA GUADALUPE organize a Toy Collection campaign in which all Ordesa employees collaborate.
Sant Jordi Campaigns: Books and Roses
Book Donation Campaigns for Saint George for the Codespa Foundation.
Ordesa celebrates Saint George's Day with the purchase of Digital Roses. All funds raised go to visits to the University Centre for Vision at the UPC Terrassa.
Book donation in the Dominican Republic
In 2010, at the Parish of Sagrada Familia, we set up a library to promote reading among children and young people in the area. Today the library has over 700 members.
As very few children have books at home, soon the dream became setting up more libraries in many other small communities too. In November 2014, a donation was made by Ordesa, Mireia Morera and family, and DHL, who also contributed with free shipping of the donation.
Around 1,000 books were collected and used to supply the existing libraries (Sabana Yegua, Barrera, Km.7 and Km.8). This donation resulted in the opening of four new mini-libraries (2-C, Cañada de Piedra, La Altagracia y km.15).
CSR and company
Ordesa took part in the programme "Valor Afegit" by TV3, in which they talked about Corporate Social Responsibility. This action forms part of the ethical and business dialogues organized by the Human Factor Foundation (FFH) we are members of.
The FFH and the programme producer contacted us to ask us to participate as an example of business ethics, and it was an honour for us to do so.
