BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach – 12 October 2022 – SL Aesthetic Clinic is pleased to have received The Xeomin Highest Achiever Asia Pacific at Merz Aesthetics 7th Golden Record Award (GRA) on 28 September 2022. Given to the leading providers of XEOMIN®, this award is meant to recognise and thank SL Aesthetic Clinic for their efforts. This is the second year SL Aesthetic Clinic has won this award, the first being in 2021.

Dr. Kelvin Chua, Founder and Medical Director of SL Aesthetic Clinic, shared his appreciation for the award. “We’re delighted to receive the XEOMIN® Highest Achiever Asia Pacific Award as the top user for South East Asia (including Vietnam and Philippines). This award reflects our wealth of experience administering XEOMIN® treatments here in Singapore. We would like to express our gratitude to Merz Aesthetics, the distributor of XEOMIN®, and the GRA organiser for this acknowledgement.”

Founded in the 2000s, SL Aesthetic offers a variety of FDA-approved, CE-marked, or HSA-approved minimal to non-invasive medical aesthetic treatments in Singapore. This includes their offering of XEOMIN®, a pure type of botulinum neurotoxin that can help treat skin issues such as wrinkles and frown lines.

XEOMIN® is the only type of purified botulinum neurotoxin type A that is free from complexing proteins. This leads to less development of antibodies and reduced incidence of reaction and tolerance to the effects of neurotoxins. Produced in Germany, it was developed to help improve the appearance of frown lines between the eyebrows and crow’s feet around the eyes. XEOMIN® can temporarily reduce the frown lines as it acts on nerve endings in muscles to prevent muscle fibres from contracting.

With this award, SL Aesthetic Clinic remains aligned with its ultimate objective, which is to enable those seeking beauty treatments to develop into the best version of themselves. For more information, you can visit SL Aesthetic Clinic’s official website or contact them at +65 6235 3246.

Vetter drives its sustainability campaign forward

Tangible ecological, economic, and social engagement in all areas of the company

  • Repeat participation in Baden Wuerttemberg’s Sustainability Days
  • Greater inclusion of employees due to involvement in various initiatives
  • Awards pay tribute to a comprehensive sustainability strategy

RAVENSBURG, GERMANY – Media OutReach – 12 October 2022 – Vetter, a globally leading contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO), has in place a comprehensive sustainability strategy that has made it a pioneer in this energy-intensive industry. The family-owned company is undertaking numerous initiatives aimed at making sustainability manifest in all facets for employees and acts as a motivator in encouraging them to participate. For the second time in a row, Vetter participated in a full week of life activities in the recent Sustainability Days of Baden-Wuerttemberg’s Sustainability Network. “To just speak about the topic of sustainability does not give it the credit it is due,” says Vetter Managing Director Thomas Otto. “That is why we are part of a proactive network of other companies. We need a strong community for sustainable development and we work hard to include all employees in the process.” Within this context, the CDMO has launched numerous sustainability activities that include various participatory events and lectures. This includes an information booth that traveled among company sites. Its aim is to sensitize all employees to the issue of sustainability and offer them easy-to-implement, hands-on suggestions that can enable greater sustainability in their professional and private lives.

By joining the Germany-wide initiative KLIMARETTER – LEBENSRETTER (Climate Saver – Life Saver), Vetter is offering a visible incentive for its staff. The initiative unites companies in the health industry behind climate protection and supports them in helping to make the positive impact of their actions more visible and substantial. For example, an online presence shows participants how much can be saved by eating less meat or using green mobility.

The comprehensive commitment to sustainability has been widely acclaimed and has also been awarded prizes. Recently, the company won the TOP-KLIMA-ENGAGEMENT 2023 (Top Climate Engagement 2023) seal from FOR OUR PLANET, the sustainability program of the Burda publishing house, in cooperation with the German news magazine FOCUS. For Vetter, sustainable measures that benefit employees are particularly important. In this context, the CDMO was awarded first place in the Sustainable Impact Awards for the category Social Impact on Employees. This prize is awarded by the German magazine WirtschaftsWoche and Generali Deutschland to the most attractive employers among medium-sized companies and is focused on employee satisfaction.

“We take a holistic view of sustainability within our company,” says Vetter Managing Director Peter Soelkner, “By doing so, we keep our attention keenly focused on the balance between ecology, economy, and social commitment.” This year for the first time, Vetter revealed the measures being taken thus far and its vision for the future in a comprehensive sustainability report. The report showed how strongly the sustainability strategy was anchored within the framework of its EHS (Environment, Health, and Safety) management. Vetter has already successfully implemented approximately 100 efficiency projects over the past ten years. For example, over 31 million kWh of energy was already saved. In addition, all of the company’s sites worldwide have been CO2-neutral since 2021. “As a family-owned company, we handle the finite resources and our society carefully with the aim of being a good example for our industry,” says Vetter Managing Director Peter Soelkner in summarizing the company-wide approach.
