Our Sustainability strategy
Our current sustainability strategy is based around two pillars: best in basics and unlock ecosystem potential. ERIKS is uniquely positioned to bridge key players, such as our customers and our 20,000 suppliers, to unlock the ecosystem potential to make industry more sustainable.
Our sustainability approach
ERIKS serves industrial customers. Industry is responsible for 20% of global emissions and consumes 54% of the world’s energy sources (World Economic Forum, March 2022).
By helping these customers operate better and more sustainably, ERIKS contributes to increased efficiency and safety outcomes, reduced waste and, in some cases, reduced GHG emissions. In 2021, we developed a new sustainability strategy that builds on our strengths and helps us realise our potential as a vital bridge between customers and suppliers. Aware of our impact, increased societal pressure and changing demand from customers and international authorities, we constantly review our priorities and challenge ourselves to accelerate and improve.
Ultimately, this strategy and approach will guide us in achieving our ambition: to industrialise sustainability
