Today we celebrate the UN’s International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone layer. A commemoration of the 1987 signing of the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone layer.

And what a joy it is to see what a great impact this initiative has had!

Through the united global effort to phase out substances that deplete the ozone layer, we have protected human health, as well as ecosystems, by limiting the harmful ultraviolet radiation from reaching the Earth. Consequently, the hole in the ozone layer is now healing.

SAR vows to never stop our strive to reduce the environmental footprint and we prioritise sustainability in all the choices we make. To us, this day is a great inspiration and reminder that if we all work together, we can heal the planet and ensure a brighter future for the generations to come.

Sustainability in SAR 

Sustainability is the core of our foundation. We recognise that every resource has a life cycle and our goal is to minimise the volume of waste generated and retain the resources for as long as possible through its lifecycle.  

The Sustainable Development Goals are the blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. The 17 goals address the global challenges we face, including those related to poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace and justice.
