For the eighth time, Aurubis is presenting a comprehensive balance sheet of its group-wide commitment to a future of the economy, the environment and people that is oriented towards sustainable growth.
The three highlight topics from Aurubis AG's Sustainability Report are:
- Recovering valuable metals with a new multi-metal recycling plant in the US.
- Investments in climate-neutral production well before 2050.
- And higher standards for even more transparency and responsibility throughout the supply chain.
Higher standards for our own company
The new Sustainability Report was published under the title "Enabling tomorrow". In it, Aurubis sets even higher standards for its own actions: in addition to the Global Reporting Initiative Standard (GRI), the company also follows the voluntary reporting standard of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosure (TCFD) for the first time.
In addition to the impact of the company's own actions on the climate, the TCFD also addresses the potential consequences of climate change on the company's own business activities. The company has been making its sustainability performance transparent for years. This includes voluntary reporting on sustainability issues, participation in sustainability rankings and ratings, and the associated assessment by independent rating agencies.
"The comprehensive Sustainability Report shows: At Aurubis, we have always understood sustainability as an essential part of our own actions and business activities. We are committed to using our planet's limited natural resources responsibly. At the same time, we place great emphasis on the people we work with. Responsible interaction with employees, suppliers, customers and neighbors is a matter of course for Aurubis," explains Roland Harings, Chairman of the Executive Board of Aurubis AG.
