Sustainability
Corporate social responsibility is an important principle for BKB Precision. We embed this in our daily activities and, together with our suppliers, customers, and employees, take responsibility for people and the environment. Furthermore, we continuously search for ways, along with our partners and other stakeholders, to invest in a better future.
Ecological footprint
At BKB Precision, we are aware of our impact on the natural environment. To gain insights, we have compiled a CO2 report for 2022. Based on this analysis, we have identified three focus areas where we can have the most meaningful impact:
- Energy
- Circularity
- Mobility
The initial measures within these focus areas have already been implemented. Naturally, our ambition extends further, and a task force will continue investing in these areas in the coming years. In 2024, BKB will provide a more comprehensive CSR report, emphasizing the most relevant sustainability themes, our achievements, and future goals.
