We believe that a sustainable company must be consistently profitable, but not solely concerned with making a profit.

Success for SLG means providing our customers with the products and services they need and want, understanding and managing the impact we have on society and the environment, and investing in the future of our employees and the communities we serve. These measures help us to carry out our work in a way that is both commercially astute and ethically sound.

SLG invests in environmentally sustainable building projects, such as efficiency improvements in new and existing structures. We also partner with community development organizations and local governments to drive financing models that support environmentally-focused building improvements.

Our global Commodities Group plays a leading role in developing the environmental commodities market, trading and structuring carbon-related transactions and other environmental commodities.

Reducing our Impact Build

We're committed to minimizing the impact of our operations and those of our supply chain on the planet and the communities we live and work in. Central to this idea is the practice of using resources efficiently and managing wastes effectively.

Improved energy-efficiency
We take the environmental impact at all stages of the product lifecycle into account – from the first sketches on the drawing board, throughout its service life until it is recycled. At the same time, energy-efficient products and solutions mean significant savings for our customers. We also strive to improve efficiency and minimize the negative impact from our own production. The long-term ambition for our production is to become carbon dioxide neutral.

Determined to be part of the solution
We are committed to significantly reducing our environmental impact, and to raising awareness about environmental issues among our stakeholders and society at large, especially those issues related to the transport industry. We develop products and services that help our customers and other stakeholders to minimize their environmental footprint.
