Scope of pledges

Belfont SA is active in Switzerland and in various markets around the world through its suppliers and partners in India, Israel and Belgium. The pledges taken within the STI framework relate to the sustainability policy applying to all Belfont SA operations carried out in Switzerland and in India. The company is therefore accountable for their implementation within the limits of its scope of activity.

Understanding the STI Next commitments

STI EngagedSTI ShaperSTI LeaderSTI Champion

Programme status. Each participant carries a programme status that reflects the overall progress of its commitments: Engaged (commitments taken, work starting), Shaper (concrete measures under way), Leader (ambitious commitments largely delivered), Champion (the highest level, all commitments achieved and renewed). This status evolves over time.

Level 1 Level 2 Level 3

Pledge levels. Every pledge is classified by ambition level, from 1 to 3, shown as dots next to its thematic. Level 1: a first, foundational commitment. Level 2: a concrete, measurable action with a defined target and timeline. Level 3: the most ambitious commitment, structural and verified against recognised standards.

In progressAchievedDelayed

Progress. Each pledge shows its progress: In progress (work under way within the agreed timeline), Achieved (target reached and validated), Delayed (timeline extended). Alumni companies keep their last recorded pledges and levels.
