Sustainability is at the core of our purpose and strategy. Along with our values, principles and sustainability strategy and targets, they create the framework for our development and responsible business practices.

We recognise that sustainable development encompasses many different factors.

“A thing is right when it tends to preserve the integrity, stability, and beauty of the biotic community. It is wrong when it

tends otherwise.” (Leopold, 1948)

So, our work also prioritises environmental sustainability, biodiversity, conservation of resources, stable economic growth and social value. 

Our sustainability targets express our focus areas and provide information on Marine Technologies’s performance. They are set under three long-term focus themes:

• Life below water: prevent and significantly reduce marine pollution of all kinds, in particular from land-based activities, including marine debris and nutrient pollution.

• Enhancing safety, diversity and wellbeing: Driving safety as a top priority and creating wellbeing for our employees, business partners and the societies we engage with.

• An active and responsible member of society: Being a responsible company with high ethical standards and engaging with key stakeholders to enhance sustainability.
