Value creation in three dimensions
The balance between business, social and environmental aspects is central to Coor’s sustainability management and underpins every part of the business. Our overall goal is to deliver on our financial targets without compromising on respect for people and the environment. Key drivers are satisfied customers, engaged employees and a reduced carbon footprint.
Our high sustainability ambitions and our strategy are based on the principles of the UN Global Compact and the UN 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) . The purpose of the goals is to abolish extreme poverty, reduce inequality and injustice in the world, promote peace and fairness, and solve the climate crisis by 2030. We want to help advance this important work and have directed our development efforts to the nine goals, where we use the most resources and, consequently, have the greatest ability to make a difference.
Environmental sustainability
Coor contributes to a better environment by actively reducing the company’s and its customers’ environmental impact and resource use.
Social sustainability
Coor helps to build a better society by being a responsible and stimulating employer, and by contributing to positive social development in the local communities where it operates.
Business sustainability
Coor will achieve long-term business sustainability through stable and profitable financial development, while upholding strong business ethics and customer relations.
Coor's view on sustainability
We spend a lot of time at our workplaces, where we want to experience healthy, welcoming and well-functioning environments. At the same time, society faces environmental challenges and we need to conserve the planet’s resources. Coor’s ambition is to contribute to both of these issues. Therefore, a sustainability perspective is included in everything we do.
