MATERIALITY ANALYSIS The expectations of the stakeholders in combination with the knowledge of our employees are guidelines for how we work with sustainability . By being responsive to the expectations , we can continue to develop in the desired direction . The foundation for the materiality analysis was laid in 2017 through surveys and in-depth interviews with three of our key stakeholders : shareholders , customers and employees . We also took into account the sustainability questions most important for New Wave Group in terms of business strategy and competitiveness . Since then , minor updates have been made from an impact perspective . Annually we also summarize the questions that have been brought to the table in ongoing dialogues with our stakeholders . A key question for our stakeholders is New Wave Group ’ s efforts to create sustainable products where quality , design and compliance with regulations , as well as good environmental performance and social conditions throughout the supply chain are taken into account .
