¿Por qué lo hacemos?
Un marco para todos
El Marco para la Sostenibilidad de Preferred by Nature es un marco universal que abarca los principales aspectos de la sostenibilidad. Al integrar aspectos escenciales de la sostenibilidad a lo largo de los productos, materias primas y paisajes de producción, el Marco para la Sostenibilidad es un buen punto de partida para aquellos que buscan crear un impacto real.
El Marco puede aplicarse a través de un enfoque basado en el riesgo para obtener la Certificación Preferred by Nature Certification. Además, este ha sido alineado con los requerimientos del Reglamento de la Unión Europea para productos libres de Deforestación, EUDR para apoyar a los sectores involucrados a lograrlo.

Preferred by Nature and Martin Guitar share the same vision: ‘To pass on the Earth to coming generations in a good shape, we must urgently invent and adopt more sustainable ways of living, sourcing and trading.

Preferred by Nature took the time to understand our questions and problem statement. Their Sustainability Framework is a great starting point to assess materials and the risks associated with including them in your supply chain.
P&G
The work done for us by Preferred by Nature and their Brazilian partner for this collaboration, Imaflora, is excellent. The report that was produced is very good, but when you look at the raw data backing that report up, it is really a goldmine. It is the encyclopedia of sugar cane sourcing in this part of Brazil.
