Sustainability is one of the cornerstones of our operations. In our day-to-day operations, we consider the aspects of the environment, society and economic well-being. In particular, considering environmental values is essential for Kolmeks at group and unit levels. We are constantly striving to develop our practices and make better choices to get a positive impact on the environment and reduce our carbon footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since 2021, the electricity used by the Kolmeks Turenki plant has been produced entirely from renewable energy sources, i.e. 100% Nordic wind and hydropower. The emission factor for the electricity we use is, therefore, zero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The use of electricity produced from renewable energy is an important step closer to a smaller carbon footprint, to which we are paying even greater attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since 2018, our carbon footprint of energy used at the Turenki factory has decreased by 87%. This number includes both electricity and district heating. It is a significant change and achieved through environmentally responsible supplier choices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other significant actions to reduce the carbon footprint at Kolmeks include more efficient recycling and more efficient utilization of waste materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
