A Responsible Future
A Responsible Future
Building a better, more sustainable future starts with a deep sense of responsibility.
This conviction guides how we operate at every level, from fostering a culture of belonging for our people to advocating for open standards in our industry and ensuring all our solutions are positive for the planet.
Sustainability at the Heart of Everything We Do
At Schréder, sustainability is embedded in our collaborative mindset. It drives us to develop environmentally, economically, and socially responsible lighting solutions and to build a sustainable future for our people and our communities.
Our own climate targets have been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative as being in line with the Paris Agreement.
This commitment is brought to life in our Together For Our Future sustainability strategy.
Building a Culture of Belonging
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) are fundamental principles at Schréder, shaping our identity and driving our achievements. We are deeply committed to fostering an environment where the unique character of each individual is not only recognised but celebrated, empowering our teams to bring the varied insights needed to drive innovation and create a truly inclusive space where everyone can flourish.
Community Initiatives
Our employees are deeply committed to giving back to the communities where they live and work.

Schréder Together Fund
Established in 2021, the Schréder Together Fund was established with the Schréder family to take a more structured approach to our philanthropic activities.
Hosted by the King Baudouin Foundation, the fund has supported a variety of humanitarian projects proposed by Schréder employees, who play an active role in its operation.
Collaborative Ethos
We know that we cannot create a better world alone. We have always strongly supported initiatives which encourage research, knowledge, experience and best practices to be shared, leading to professional and quality installations. We are active members of committees that define and drive standards in lighting and interoperable technology to guarantee futureproof ecosystems with reliable, integrated and sustainable solutions.
