Our sustainability work

Nordisk Bergteknik employs a long-term perspective for a sustainable society. Sustainability for us includes how we work, how we act with each other and how we collaborate with our customers. It is also about us taking responsibility for our environment and that we respect the environment in which we operate.

Our customers are mainly private companies with a focus on the public sector and public infrastructure. Environment and safety are of the utmost importance in our work. Our staff, currently around 1,100 employees, are well trained and comply with current environmental and safety requirements.

Part of the industry development for the future

Nordisk Bergteknik has had the privilege of being a partner in a number of discussions about the future together with industry-leading players in order to find real solutions together. The topics have been about everything from how energy storage can take place underground to the development of new machine models.

We are also proud to have one of the largest and most modern fleets of machinery in the world within our industry. This not only makes us efficient but also brings many sustainability benefits to our work.

”The group has a clear ambition to participate in the development of the
sustainable society”

Andreas Christoffersson, CEO Nordisk Bergteknik

Our material sustainability topics

The Group’s sustainability impact has been identified through a double materiality analysis. This impact arises both from our own operations and in relation to our customers and suppliers. We are working to develop targets for our material issues.

Through our long-term objectives, we are also working to contribute to the global Sustainable Development Goals set out in the UN’s 2030 Agenda. We recognise that seven of the goals are closely linked to our material sustainability issues.
