Sustainability



Sustainability has always been – and continues to be – a key element of our strategy. Over the years, Outokumpu has been a leader in environmental performance in the industrial sector. Our commitment to the people who work for us – providing a safe workplace with opportunities for skills development – is a cornerstone of our efforts to further improve the sustainability of our operations. Sustainability is a continuing journey and the recognition we receive for the Group's performance in this area is encouraging. While we are pleased with the progress already made, more ambitious and demanding objectives for different aspects of sustainability are being set.
The idea of sustainability is embedded in our product, stainless steel - fully recyclable and maintenance free material. Sustainability in our operations stands for safe and healthy workplace and continuous development of our processes to minimise the environmental impact of stainless steel production. Corporate responsibility is seen as an integral part of all operations, business processes and decision-making including economic, environmental and social aspects and their impacts on different stakeholders.
