We are committed to processes that keep high-value materials in use for as long as possible. For us, managing materials includes recycling, repowering and other initiatives aimed at ensuring we use materials in a responsible way that minimizes waste and maximizes economic value.
As outlined in our Policy on Management and Protection of Nature, our commitments include:
- Using natural resources such as water, land, energy sources and raw materials responsibly and sustainably;
- Managing hazardous and non-hazardous waste responsibly;
- Improving the circularity of business activities and within our supply chain, including the eco-design of infrastructures; analysis of technology life cycles; and promotion of the use of recycled materials.
