Sustainability & ESG

Safer work should support a more sustainable future.

Our direction

Practical action across environment, people and governance.

RHINO SHOE is manufactured by Safetyware Sdn. Bhd., a member of Safetyware Group. The Group's ESG programme provides the wider framework for environmental, social and governance initiatives that support our operations.

We are working to improve resource efficiency, reduce avoidable waste, support employees and communities, and maintain accountable business practices. Sustainability is an ongoing programme rather than a finished claim, and product-level environmental attributes should be verified against the current technical file.

E

Environment

  • Rooftop solar panels at the Penang headquarters help increase the use of clean energy.
  • A 3R programme promotes reduction, reuse and recycling across daily operations.
  • Product and packaging work includes a gradual move away from unnecessary plastic and the evaluation of recycled materials.
  • Waste handling and responsible chemical use form part of the Group's environmental policy direction.
S

Social

  • Employee welfare, learning, safety and an inclusive workplace are core operating priorities.
  • Community programmes include free CPR and AED training for communities, schools and NGOs.
  • Volunteering and donations support broader community health and safety.
  • RHINO SHOE's purpose remains grounded in protecting people at work.
G

Governance

  • Policies and systems support ethical conduct, accountability, risk management and regulatory compliance.
  • The holding company's Bursa Malaysia listing brings public-company governance and reporting expectations.
  • Quality management and model-specific product documentation support responsible procurement.
  • Stakeholders can review Group-level ESG information and policies on the corporate website.

Responsible product decisions

Specify performance first, then consider lifecycle.

The most responsible safety shoe is one that provides the required protection, fits correctly, lasts for its intended service conditions and is replaced at the right time. Buyers should avoid over-specification, maintain footwear properly and consolidate size data to reduce unnecessary returns and waste.
