Environmental performance monitoring and reporting
Performance monitoring and reporting are of great importance. It helps us prove that our strategy is effective. Our defined objectives – many of which apply globally – include CO2 emissions, water, recycling and use of solvents (Volatile organic compounds).

Responsible sourcing
as part of our overall responsible sourcing approach, all major suppliers to SKF are required to achieve (or have a credible plan to achieve) ISO 140001 certification? Since 2007, energy intensive suppliers have also been required to report on energy use carbon emissions and their management of this issue.
