FOR sustainable operation

Sustainable operation in Trimo is based on balanced added value for customers, employees and owners; and symbiosis with the environment and the society that surrounds us. We are aware of our responsibility to improve the world and we fulfil it in the best possible way:

• We encourage sustainable, environmentally-friendly building construction and develop environmentally friendly products and technologies that put construction of energy efficient buildings and use of alternative energy resources, first.We developed a new family of environmentally and people friendly products in order to protect the environment Trimo EcoSolutions.

• Together with suppliers and other business partners we ensure the finished life cycles of products where secondary raw materials are returned to the production process – for re-use.In the last five years we reduced the quantity of all trade waste by 33,7 % and, at the same time, we have been successfully increasing the percentage of recyclable waste in the total weight of all waste – in 2008 we achieved 90,4 % of recyclable waste.

• Safe and health-friendly products and solutions are also incorporated in our business and production facilities.We built a solar power plant on our high-rack warehouse. It should produce 22,000 kWh in a year. Considering the average use of electric energy, this is sufficient to meet the  yearly energy needs of 7 Slovenian households.
• On strategy and the work programme in the area of environment protection, safety and health, we educate employees at yearly training days.In the last five years we have reduced the water use per employee by 21,7 %.
