Sustainability at Amtico
When you choose an Amtico floor, we want you to be sure it’s built on foundations that protect our planet and empower our people.
So here is our strategy, in brief, for tackling the major challenges. Not in the next 20 years, but right now.
Our strategy
Responsible Foundations
We at Amtico recognise that we have a responsibility to carry out business activities in an environmentally, economically, and socially responsible manner.
Our sustainability strategy, Responsible Foundations, formalises our approach to our sustainability commitments and gives us the ability to benchmark our progress clearly and comprehensively. Core areas, what we term as ‘pillars’, help define and focus our sustainability efforts. These are:
Pillar
Fighting Climate Change
Pillar
Reducing
Waste
Pillar
Empowering
People
Our foundations
The glue that holds our strategy together
Championing Innovation
Supply Chain Resillience
Our progress so far...
We have set ambitious targets within our sustainability roadmap, covering activities within all pillars and key foundation areas, against which we will be reporting progress annually. But we've always worked hard to take care of our people and minimise our impact on the environment.
