ESG STRATEGY
GRI 2-23

As part of Grupo Lamosa’s commitment to sustainability and to all its stakeholders, the company strategically manages its most relevant Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) aspects, always adhering to a culture of compliance and guided by the ethical values that give the company its identity.

These priorities were identified through an initial materiality analysis carried out in 2021, and are reflected in the company’s sustainability model and strategy. The cooperation and efforts of all the work areas that make up Grupo Lamosa have led to a significant consolidation of this strategy.

During 2022, different initiatives were implemented and new actions gradually integrated in response to the strategy. These will be continuously monitored and adjusted, thus underpinning the company’s firm commitment to become increasingly sustainable. To this end, Grupo Lamosa is currently working on the creation of a Sustainability Committee with accountability to the Board of Directors to enable the timely monitoring of the performance of the different areas.

Additionally, the company is in the process of defining relevant objectives and indicators. In subsequent reports, Grupo Lamosa will analyze them in greater depth, thus enhancing transparency and its accountability to the different stakeholders.

Grupo Lamosa’s strategic sustainability model is presented below. It has five main focuses: Business integrity and robustness; Customer focus; Driving talent; Product innovation, quality and safety; and Environmental management: circularity and climate action.
