GF Singapore recognized as Champion of Good by NVPC for Exemplary Corporate Purpose and Impact

GF Singapore has been awarded the prestigious Champion of Good status by the National Volunteer & Philanthropy Centre (NVPC), recognizing the company as a national leader in corporate responsibility and impact. This top-tier award celebrates GF’s long-standing commitment to creating positive change across society, the environment, and the economy.

GF Singapore is honoured to announce its recognition as a Champion of Good by the National Volunteer & Philanthropy Centre (NVPC) – the highest level of distinction awarded under Singapore’s Company of Good certification. This national recognition acknowledges organizations that exemplify excellence in corporate purpose and drive meaningful impact across five key dimensions: environment, people, governance, society, and economy.

This prestigious award affirms GF’s commitment to embedding sustainability and innovation at the core of its business. As a Champion of Good, GF Singapore is recognized as an “exemplary organization influencing stakeholders for multiplied impact.” This milestone reflects the alignment of GF’s global purpose – "Becoming better every day – since 1802" – with local action and community engagement. “This achievement is a collective success that speaks to our values, vision, and the long-standing commitment of our team,” said Adi Wirawan, Head of GF Southeast Asia Pacific, who accepted the award at the official ceremony on July 17, 2025.

Turning Purpose Into Action: GF Singapore’s Key Initiatives

Over the past years, GF Singapore has implemented a series of impactful initiatives that bring its corporate purpose to life:

• ASEAN Community Impact Program (CIP): Launched in 2023 and initiated by Alexandre Geiger, previously Head of ASEAN, across all five ASEAN countries, this program dedicates one day each October to community service. Local teams engage hands-on – such as beach clean-ups in Singapore and mangrove planting in the Philippines – to drive environmental and social impact.

• Eco Office Certification: Awarded by the Singapore Environmental Council, this certification highlights GF’s efforts to build a greener, more sustainable workplace through collective awareness and actionable change.

• Annual Volunteering & Ramadan On Wheels (ROW): Every year during Ramadan, GF Singapore contributes both financially and through employee volunteering to ROW, an initiative supporting elderly individuals and low-income families. In 2024 alone, the team helped raise funds and deliver essential groceries to 800 families.
• University Day / ChemQuest: GF Singapore opens its doors to students, offering them insight into real-world industrial challenges and innovations. These sessions not only educate but also serve to attract future talent to the industry.

A Commitment Validated for the Future

The Champion of Good status is valid for three years and represents more than an award – it reflects GF’s ongoing dedication to responsible business practices that benefit society and the environment. “As a company with over two centuries of history, our corporate purpose is more than a statement – it is the compass that guides our innovations, decisions, and relationships,” said Wolfgang Dornfeld, Head of BU APAC. “By living our purpose, we build trust, inspire progress, and shape a better future – together.” This recognition reinforces GF’s belief that sustainability and innovation are not separate initiatives, but core drivers of growth and impact. It motivates the team to keep striving and, hopefully, inspires others to do the same.
