Sustainability
Sustainability is close to our hearts.
Nords Group delivers high-quality stainless steel products with a long service life, which gives our customers safe, reliable and efficient operations. Our products are made of stainless steel and thus recyclable.
We have, since the start in 1904, strived to create a safe workplace where people thrive and develop. We choose chemicals and energy solutions with low environmental footprint. We have reduced significantly our CO2 emission and the use of disposable plastics.
We are ISO 14001 certified since 2002 and have continuously improved our sustainability.
In 2021 we broadened our view of sustainability by involving our owners, employees, customers, suppliers and the society around us. Read more below about our results and our focus going forward.
