Raising the bar
Climate action
We recognize the threat of climate change and the effects it can have on human health. We are committed to collaborating with our customers and suppliers to reduce CO2 emissions across our value chain in line with a 1.5 °C global warming scenario.
Circular economy
We are maximizing the lifetime value of our products and solutions while minimizing the use of new materials and resources and eliminating waste. We do this through innovative service models, smart digital solutions, and product take-back, refurbishment and recycling.
EcoDesign
We embed sustainability in our innovation processes. EcoDesign is an approach that addresses all aspects of product development and design, including recyclability and chemicals management.
Supplier sustainability
Sustainable supply management is more than simply managing compliance: it is about collaborating with our partners to reduce the environmental footprint of our supply chain in line with a 1.5 °C global warming scenario.
Partnering to drive change
We are teaming up with our partners to increase our social and environmental impact and building strong coalitions to effect global change.
Environmental Profit & Loss
Each year we publish an Environmental Profit & Loss account, which expresses the total environmental impact of our activities and products in monetary terms. This provides insight into the main environmental hotspots where we need to innovate to reduce our impact.
Sustainable sites
Through 2025 we will further embed circular practices at our sites and continue sending zero used materials to landfill.
