Being an engineering company and supplier of products and services with limited in-house production, we strive primarily to attain our environmental goals through the development of processes, equipment and services that help our customers set ambitious standards for their own production processes.
FLSmidth therefore invests considerable resources in developing new solutions that may contribute to reducing energy consumption and lowering the emissions of NOx, CO, SO2, etc.
FLSmidth’s environmental policy is reflected in the following declaration of intent:
- Products and services supplied by FLSmidth must comply with current environmental standards
- FLSmidth’s products and services are to be designed so that they support the Group’s image as being a responsible, reliable and professional supplier who meets the market’s expectations and demands in terms of new sustainable technology.
When FLSmidth develops new products and services, their full life cycle must be taken into account, and an effort must be made to reduce the consumption of energy and natural resources whilst as far as possible reducing or eliminating emissions and noise nuisance.
Considering the environmental aspects, FLSmidth will aim towards training and motivating customers to ensure optimum usage of our products and services.
FLSmidth will collect data in order to document the Group’s direct environmental impact and on this basis formulate environmental goals and plans of action.
We are therefore working on reducing the energy consumption of and emissions from our own offices and production facilities. For example, our Indian project centre in Chennai has invested in a wind turbine that is connected to the local power grid which means that the office in Chennai is more than self-sufficient in green energy.
