When you think of innovation, you probably think of sleek designs, smart features, and cutting-edge technology. And Hisense loves all of that. After all, their slogan is “In love, with technology.”
But there’s something else that’s just as interesting—something that’s not on the spec sheet: sustainability. It doesn’t have lights that flash, it doesn’t make noise, but it’s present in everything they do, from how they power their factories and design their equipment, to how they care for their employees and select their suppliers. And now, this ongoing work “behind the scenes” has brought them a major achievement: the prestigious EcoVadis platinum medal, awarded to their factories in Europe. This places them among the 1% of the most sustainable companies in the world.
What does sustainability look like at Hisense? They have built a strategy that integrates sustainability into every layer of operations.
This means designing smarter systems, investing in cleaner energy, obtaining certifications like ISO 14001 (environment), ISO 50001 (energy) and SA8000 (social responsibility), and being accountable through verified reporting and global standards. They have even joined the UN Global Compact.
Hisense has taken deliberate steps to increase positive impact, from how they train teams and manage factories, to collaborating with suppliers and partners across the value chain.
The results speak for themselves:
• 5.3 MW of solar energy produced locally, in Slovenia
• 100% of employees trained on human rights and anti-discrimination
• 100% of manufacturing plants certified with environmental and social systems
• 96% of suppliers with contracts that include sustainability clauses
It's not just about doing less harm. It's about doing more – with strategy, with purpose, and with concrete plans.
Why does it matter to you? Because when you choose a Hisense appliance made in Europe, you choose more than performance. You choose a product that is part of a bigger vision, a vision that values ??people, the planet and progress.
Hisense doesn't believe that durability should be a stand-alone feature. It should be the foundation.
And this medal? It's proof that they're building that foundation right.
