THREE AREAS OF SUSTAINABILITY

We have created our sustainability initiative in line with growing customer engagement around sustainability and the United Nations' push towards Agenda 2030*. Our sustainability initiative is based on analyses of our own business, market and global megatrends, combined with stakeholder engagement dialogs. In a thorough process we have created a materiality matrix comprised by the 12 most important material topics to our business. These 12 topics are grouped in our three sustainability focus areas: 

  • LEADING BY INNOVATION
  • LEADING BY PEOPLE
  • LEADING BY TRUST

As we embark on our sustainability journey, our next step is to define goals, targets and actions.

"OUR SUSTAINABLE JOURNEY"

At Kollmorgen Automation AB we have taken the opportunity to work on our own sustainability vision. It has been particularly interesting for us to review our processes and learn more about ourselves and our customers, and how we can together contribute to a more sustainable world of business, society and the environment.

This is our first official sustainability initiative. I hope you will find value in our commitment and follow our journey towards a more sustainable prosperous future.
