Sustainability
At NedZink, we want to take responsibility for making the world a better place.That’s why we’re not only reducing our carbon footprint and using renewable energy,we’re also taking a step back and looking at how we can contribute to global sustainability goals.
The following initiatives show how we plan to achieve our objectives, which are inspired by those of the United Nations. They illustrate how we’re making a contribution in practice.
All the sustainability initiatives we have developed and will implement in the future focus on four sustainability promises. This ensures we continue to work towards increased sustainability.
An organisation’s people are one of its most important assets. By investing in our employees, we achieve the growth, development and safety of individuals and our processes. The investments we make are aimed at ensuring every employee arrives at work healthy and goes home healthy.
We continuously strive to make our production process as sustainable as possible. We shifted from a block casting process, to a continuous casting process, which represents a huge step towards achieving our sustainability goals. This also enabled us to switch from gas to 100% green electricity so that the products we currently make are produced using a green production process.
Making the production process more sustainable, using green energy and having the ability to produce and process larger coils ensures that we can create an even fairer and more sustainable product.
By taking a step back and reflecting on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals set out by the United Nations for 2030, NedZink not only focuses on reducing its ecological footprint but can also contribute to the global sustainability goals.
