Atlas Copco�s Sustainability report is since 2001 prepared in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) guidelines. This report is the second following the updated GRI 3.0 version guidelines.
Enviornment- (Global Policy)
Like most industrial companies, Atlas Copco operations affects the environment in the production process, through the use of natural resources, and the generation of emissions and wastes, in the distribution of, as well as in the use and final disposal of its products.The Group works to reduce these impacts both in the design of new products, in the continuous product development, and through the ongoing improvements of the manufacturing plants where environmental considerations are integral parts. For
this purpose, a number of key performance indicators are monitored,
and some are reported here.
In 2007, Atlas Copco�s revenues increased in volume by 27%(including acquisitions). At the same time, through efficiency improvements and a greater focus on environmental issues, the use of natural resources has increased at a lower pace except for transport related fuel consumption. For example, in absolute figures, energy use increased 18%, water use has increased with 3%,
CO2 emissions from energy 19%, cooling agents 20%, and transport
fuel and CO2 emissions from transport both increased 55%.
Environmental management systems( Global Policy)
One of Atlas Copco�s most significant environmental goals is to implement environmental management systems (EMS) in all operations to help minimize environmental impacts. In 2007, 44% of Atlas Copco�s employees worked in an EMS environment.The objective is to reach 100%.
Considerable efforts have been made over the years to cut down on unnecessary packaging materials, for instance by optimizing packing solutions and reusing packaging materials. For example in the Atlas Copco product company for construction
tools in China, the reduction of packing material was 38% in relation
to cost of sales in 2007.
More products and solutions meet sustainable development requirements, for example through decreased energy consumption
and improved ergonomics.
More and new suppliers have been evaluated, both from environmental
and a social perspective.
Emissions and waste (Global Policy)
In 2007, the decrease of CO2 emissions from energy at production sites was 11% in relation to cost of sales, due to investments in more energy efficient production, for example upgrade of air conditioning system, change into variable speed drive (VSD) compressors and change of production area lighting.
