Oleon is the leading company in Europe for the production of chemicals based on nature’s oils and fats. We work together to find that thin balance between technical performance and environmental awareness: our products meet the most stringent market requirements and comply with the latest environmental legislation due to the biodegradability and renewability of our raw materials: vegetable oils and animal fats.
At Oleon we integrate economic, social and environmental issues in business decisions to achieve long term, sustainable added value for all stakeholders.
At Oleon we believe in applying our sustainability motivation beyond our employees and working environment. As a socially engaged company, Oleon is involved in local communities.
In 2017, the Avril Group signed the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), making us a direct contributor to the SDGs. Oleon has decided to focus on 4 SDG's specifically where we believe we will have the biggest impact. Learn more about our efforts to work towards them
Since 2015, Oleon has a tailor-made sustainability policy with SMART objectives and indicators. This policy is based on strong involvement of all our stakeholders (management, employees, shareholders and customers) to continuously improve our impact on the environment, the well-being of our people and the financial stability of our company. In the following years, this new policy will be translated into effective action plans.
Being a subsidiary of the Avril Group, Oleon completes the synergetic chain of human, animal and planet preservation. This allows us to be the direct link between products and raw materials, facilitating the traceability of your products back to nature.
