Safety and environment

We commit ourselves to continuous improvement of our health, safety and environmental performance. To comply with and, where appropriate, exceed legislative and regulatory requirements is a continuous goal.

We seek to

  • Manage our operation in a manner that puts safety and health first 
  • Encourage our employees to adopt a healthy, safe life style for themselves and their families
  • Contribute to eco-efficiency by continuously improving our energy consumption, reducing waste and discharges
  • Design our products and product applications to have minimum adverse effect on the environment throughout their life
  • Encourage re-use and recycling

We are convinced that every incident has concrete causes and therefore can be avoided.
We therefore systematically seek to deepen our understanding of health, safety and environmental risks and the effects of our activities and products. This is our way to ensure that the measures we take are appropriate, timely and based on the best possible foundation.

Our employees and our Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) management system are the two ground pillars in our efforts to ensure a high and continuously improving level. 

Key elements here are

  • The attitudes and personal contribution from each and every one of our employees
  • HSE competence requirements for all positions
  • Appropriate training
  • Systematic management of HSE risks and opportunities through well-defined standards and procedures
  • HSE performance indicators integrated into business plans and personal performance objectives

Health, Safety and Environment are for us cornerstones in sustainable growth.
