Our sustainability strategy

At Elmia, we are committed to making sustainability an integral part of our organization. Our sustainability strategy covers our entire organization and helps us achieve our vision.

Our strategy for integrating sustainability into our business can be summarized in the following points:

Relevance and significance

We prioritize our efforts and actions by evaluating their relevance and significance—to focus on what is most important, both for us and our stakeholders.

Impact assessment

We understand our impact on the environment, the economy, and people—as well as the financial risks and opportunities that affect us. Assessing our impact helps us identify the areas we need to focus on.

Stakeholder engagement

We engage in active dialogue with our stakeholders to ensure that our decisions are well-founded and take their interests into account. 

Communication

We communicate internally and externally to share our sustainability initiatives. We share both our progress and lessons learned to inspire, teach, share experiences, and listen to the outside world. 

Due Diligence

We place demands on our partners when it comes to sustainability. We do this by analyzing and evaluating whether they meet our requirements for being environmentally friendly, socially responsible, and economically sustainable. 

Sustainable business development

We integrate and adapt our business activities to maximize our contribution to sustainable development—and to be a responsible and sustainable leader in our industry.

Sustainability reporting

We report on our progress and results in the area of sustainability. Through our reports, we provide insight into our work and take responsibility towards our stakeholders.

Our core values are characterised by sustainability and guide us in everything we do. Our values are based on four concepts: trust, commitment, professionalism and innovation.
