Energy management

Energy management

We have started specific action plans and investments at manufacturing plants globally aimed at combatting the effects of climate change through both adaptation and mitigation initiatives. Ongoing projects include increasing renewable sources in our energy mix, installation of solar panels, and lighting and insulation systems.

We are constantly looking to diversify our energy sources, namely by working with our local suppliers to apply certifiable renewable sources of energy including installation of solar panels at our sites for self-produced renewable energy.
