Energy
We work to increase our resource efficiency by reducing the consumption of energy in our production. Trelleborg’s initiative for systematic energy optimization, Energy Excellence, has been introduced at all production units and resulted in lower energy consumption, costs and CO2 emissions.
Climate
Trelleborg’s “20 by 20” climate target was achieved by a very good margin at the end of 2020, mainly by switching to green electricity and continuous energy efficiency improvements during the period. Trelleborg achieved a reduction of 32 percentage points since the base year of 2015.
Waste
We work to reduce the consumption of raw materials in our production, and by finding ways to improve the recovery of materials from production waste that we cannot reduce or avoid.
Emissions
In addition to energy-related emissions – such as carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides, the company’s emissions to air primarily comprise volatile organic compounds (VOC).
Water
Our total water consumption includes water used in production and, for example, sanitary water. Water consumption is critical only in areas of physical and economic water scarcity.
Chemicals
We take into account the effects of the chemical substances used in our products and processes on the environment, health and safety. The responsible management of chemicals includes phase-out of those deemed as being of high concern.
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
Trelleborg has a long tradition of working for an inclusive culture and to consistently work to ensure that every employee has the same opportunities to develop regardless of background.
The Diversity Equity and Inclusion Directive at Group level recognizes that diversity, equity and inclusion is a strength for the Trelleborg Group.
Trelleborg believes diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) encompass but are not limited to various aspects such as race, ethnicity, color, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, social class, language, culture, physical ability, or attributes, religious or ethical values system, national origin, or political beliefs. Trelleborg aims to embrace and collaborate with people from different backgrounds, experiences, and viewpoints.
Trelleborg actively works to achieve a balanced, diversified workforce beyond gender, ethnicity, and age being relevant as an attractive employer by mirroring the environment in which the Group operates in the best way possible.
The directive is based on Trelleborg’s core values and details the principles defined in the company’s Code of Conduct
