Advancing sustainability through strong partnerships and shared frameworks
Collaborations and partnerships are key to demonstrating our commitment, engaging in forward-looking discussions, and advancing sustainability within recognized and shared frameworks.
UN Global Compact (UNGC)
We have signed the United Nations Global Compact in 2021 and support the Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact on human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption.
Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS)
Since 2020, we are a member of the Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS). The AWS is a global membership collaboration comprising businesses, NGOs and the public sector. As a member we contribute to the sustainability of local water-resources by working with the universal framework for the sustainable use of water – the International Water Stewardship Standard, or AWS Standard – that drives, recognizes and rewards good water stewardship performance.

Our main industry association memberships comprise membership of the Federal Association of the German Glass Industry (BV Glas) and the European Container Glass Federation (FEVE). Gerresheimer is also a member of relevant employer associations. In 2020, we also joined the Hydrogen Alliance Bavaria in order to contribute to the evolution of this key technology.
