Future-oriented sustainability in practice
We are very proud to have been awarded the EcoVadis ‘Committed’ badge for our commitment to the environment, labour and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement!
A validation of our dedication
The award confirms our intention and our efforts to establish and continuously develop responsible and transparent corporate governance. We have already made significant progress over the previous year.
The ‘Committed’ badge is a valuable indicator for us that we are on the right track and at the same time shows that we are actively endeavouring to improve our ESG performance. We are proud to carry this sustainability label and will continue to work on improving our practices in the future. The EcoVadis assessment is carried out annually and with each new assessment we not only raise our own standards, but also help to ensure that sustainability is given even greater consideration throughout the industry.
The EcoVadis assessment is an internationally recognised platform that evaluates companies in the areas of environmental, social and governance (ESG). It assesses 21 metrics in four key areas:
By regularly participating in the EcoVadis assessment, we continuously strive to improve our processes and services and become even more sustainable.
Ziele für nachhaltige Entwicklung
Supporting non-profit organizations is very important to us, and we are proud that through our commitment to the climate protection project by myclimate in Uganda, we can help provide children with access to clean drinking water. With the support of the HAM-LOG-GRUPPE, institutions such as schools and health centers are being equipped with new technologies that enable water purification. The consumption of non-renewable firewood and charcoal has been reduced, leading to a saving of 500 tons of Co2. This development not only has a positive impact on the climate but also on the living conditions and health of thousands of people.
We are pleased to be able to make a significant contribution to the United Nations’ “Sustainable Development Goals” (SDGs). These 17 goals were defined to advance sustainable development worldwide. To ensure transparency, reliability, and a positive impact, the goals are measured and certified based on the “Gold Standards” defined by international environmental organizations. The certificate for our climate contribution can be found further down on this page.

The 1,145 children at St. Paul’s Primary School in Kyebando love to play a lot, which makes adequate and safe water supplies even more important. The school received its drinking water treatment system from Impact Water in 2016. The purified water is only used for drinking.

A group of students learned how to use the system. „It was important for us to learn how to use the system. This way we can use the system even when the responsible teacher is not there.”

Equal opportunities for all
At the HAM-LOG-GRUPPE, the focus is always on the people – this naturally also applies to the youngest members of our society. Promoting equal opportunities right from the start is therefore a very special concern for us, as this is the only way we can invest sustainably in our future.
For decades, we have therefore supported the Kinderjahre foundation, whose projects promote the individual personal development of children, ensure equal opportunities through their work in education and upbringing and lay a strong foundation for a self-determined life.
“We thank the HAM-LOG-GRUPPE for years of working together. A company that puts the appreciation of people, employees and partners, in the foreground has a far-sighted world view. Social commitment, social togetherness must not be forgotten in a civil society that is reorganizing itself; they provide emotional integration.
HAM-LOG supports our efforts to provide equal opportunities for children. Together we are committed to a happily managed future for our society; only together can we be strong!”
