SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY
ACCORDING TO ESG CRITERIA
Sustainability has always been a long-term process. It means taking measures today that will affect the future generation. The long-standing tradition of manufacturing, supplying many industries across the customer spectrum and also the dynamic development of the company on a global scale makes us think deeply about the impact of our activities on the planet and our children. The ESG principles have therefore become part of our company values and we care about how our employees will think about them.
We have created the key pillars of sustainability and set an ambitious climate neutrality target by 2050. See our 2021 ESG report, which presents our direction in specific details.

Kiwanis Doll
The SILON Company joined the “Kiwanis Doll” project before 2005 and is a long-term partner of the Kiwanis Klub Ostrava Civic Association and Distrikt Kiwanis International CZ and SR. It contributes approx. 1 ton of polyester staple for stuffing the fabric dolls to the club every year.
Kiwanis is a not-for-profit organisation focusing on actively helping children. The priority of the “Kiwanis Doll” project is to help lonely and ill children in children’s wards at hospitals. The young patient receives a white fabric doll on arriving in hospital, which he is able to colour and name. This doll accompanies the child as a friend and helps him throughout his hospital stay. It is also an important tool during communication between doctors and the child. The doctor is able to explain and demonstrate what examinations will be necessary to the young patient using the doll. This helps the child tolerate the treatment he needs because he knows what to expect and how it will take place. http://www.kiwanis.cz/index.php?jazyk=eng&file=uvod
