Reporting on our CSR commitment
Committed to a responsible approach since its creation, Wild&Slow has chosen to publish its indicators as a sign of good faith and transparency. Our approach is largely inspired by the Climate Disclosure Report methodology, which has already been adopted by 170 communications agencies worldwide. www.creativeandclimate.com.
A cornerstone of our CSR commitments : sales transparency
As a business of influence, our agency’s biggest carbon impact is the work we do for our customers. It’s in the projects, products and services we promote, the behaviors we standardize, the new ways of thinking that inspire the behavior of thousands/millions of people, that our impact on society lies. Yes, our impacts on the environment and society are essentially indirect, and policies to reduce our direct impacts, such as recycling our ink cartridges or buying bicycles for our teams, are insufficiently trivial.
So it’s time to do a lot more across the design and communications sector. As part of our commitment to transparency and CSR, we are providing visitors to our website with a breakdown of our sales every year. To show you that we’re in the business of solutions, not problems.

Our commercial policy
Our business policy reflects our CSR commitments. We aim to serve organizations in the positive economy that have a clear mission in their DNA, or that have taken sincere steps to challenge an old economic model based on the limitless exploitation of our natural and human resources. In order to integrate our societal and environmental objectives into our collaboration strategy, we have classified our business sectors into 3 categories: desired collaborations, collaborations to be studied, and undesired collaborations.
Desired collaborations :
- Circular economy: reconditioning, second-hand, upcycling…
- Green tech, sustainable and/or eco-designed innovations
- Sustainable tourism
- Public health
- Institutions (ambitious)
- Organizations promoting responsible behavior and solidarity
- Social and solidarity economy
- Sharing economy
- Energy transition companies and organizations
- Training, education and coaching
- Culture, arts and science professions
- Organic agri-food
- New modes of consumption that are sometimes those of yesteryear
- Climate-oriented labels and rating tools
- Environmentally-friendly local know-how
- Companies promoting Made in France and local production
- All companies seriously committed to sustainable development.
Collaborations to consider :
- All sectors not included in either of the other two lists
Unwanted collaborations :
- Companies in the oil industry (where fossil fuels account for over 30% of sales).
- Companies producing animal meat on an essentially industrial and intensive model, and which do not take animal suffering into account.
- Food companies that assume they contain palm oil, but have made no commitment to reduce or eliminate this component from their products.
- Food companies that are not predominantly organic or have an equivalent quality label.
- Cement manufacturers with clincker
- Petrochemical manufacturers producing pesticides (neonicotinoids, glyphosate, etc.).
- Automobile manufacturers who do not produce genuine ecological innovations.
- Alcoholic beverages
- Those involved in intensive fishing
- Companies that do not take into account the well-being of their employees.
- Companies that use child labor.
- Controversial sectors mentioned above in the paragraph on our share of sales
