We are proud and happy to share with you Kornit’s 2021 Impact Report, showcasing our impact on the planet and on people, through our forward-looking impact strategy and ESG achievements.
We remain steadfast in our vision to boldly transform the world of fashion and textiles for a better, more sustainable planet. Last year, with the release of our first-ever Impact Report, we detailed a set of bold objectives to help achieve that vision. As you’ll see in this year’s report, we made meaningful progress in many areas, including notable reductions in energy and waste, and improvements in community engagement, employee engagement, and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI).
This year the report also presents our updated impact strategy which is holistic and incorporates numerous factors to best meet our goals, including stakeholders’ input and needs, our unique business model and strategic goals, and the industry and overall ecosystem. Importantly, we strive to be not only an active participant in the market, but also an agent of change.
Our impact strategy is made of two fundamental pillars of activity:
- Planet
Providing sustainable solutions and improving resource efficiency in the fashion industry. - People
Contributing to society and actively working toward the betterment of people’s lives.
For each of these strategic pillars, our approach is dual, maximizing our impact:
- Enable the Change
Facilitating transformation to a more sustainable planet - Be the Change
Implementing sustainable practices within our own operations
We’ve learned a lot in this intense process, and we believe in setting our sights high to create the long-term, industry-wide change we believe is possible.
“Innovation is at the heart of everything we do—from our systems and inks to our software and service, to our social and environmental action.” says Ronen Samuel, Kornit Digital’s CEO.
Our ongoing dedication to improving ESG practices within our own operations has resulted in Company-wide achievements in various areas such as Climate Action and Waste Management, green chemistry, diversity and inclusion and much more.
“Since our founding in 2002, Kornit has dedicated itself to creating lasting change in our industry”, concluding Omer Kulka, Chief Marketing Officer at Kornit Digital. “In addition to our efforts to reduce our overall environmental impact, we’re focused on the health, safety, and wellbeing of everyone using our products; improving the lives of our people in the workplace; and positively contributing to the industry and society. While we believe progress has been made, we know there’s more work to be done and we look forward to driving positive change for our business, our industry, and the ecosystem at large.”
