Sustainable development Our future
Sustainability is a core part of our strategy and everyday operations.
Sustainability guides us in creating solutions that support responsible business and long-term competitiveness—today and in the future.
Valmet Automotive’s sustainability strategy was released in September 2021. Our strategy leans on three themes:
- Respecting planetary boundaries
- Strengthening integrity and dignity within the organization
- Ensuring profitable business
Our dedicated HR strategy strengthens our commitment to responsibility by promoting proactive safety and a culture of continuous learning.
Through these efforts, we build sustainable solutions for the future and secure our competitiveness in a changing operating environment.

Sustainability programme
To implement our sustainability strategy, we have launched the True Green Initiative programme. The programme includes six different workstreams, each with several concrete actions to manage and improve sustainability in our everyday work.
SCIENCE-BASED CLIMATE TARGETS
OUR COMMITMENT TO CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION
We have set science-based emission reduction targets aligned with the Paris Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5°C through the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
Valmet Automotive’s short-term 2030 targets (2022 baseline):
- We are commited to reducing our own emissions (scope 1 and 2) by 90%
- We are commited to reducing our value chain emissions (Scope 3) by 25%
Through these, we continue to actively work on emission reductions and will regularly report on our progress.
EFFORTS FOR MITIGATING SUPPLY CHAIN EMISSIONS
We aim to reduce emissions across our supply chain. Through our Supplier Code of Conduct we encourage our suppliers to cutx CO₂ emissions, lower water and energy consumption, promote the responsible use of raw materials, and minimize waste.
EXPECTATIONS TO US AND OUR SUPPLIERS
Our strong principles and Codes of Conduct for employees, suppliers, and partners support everyday decision-making and constructive collaboration. Reputation, trust, and integrity are the three key pillars on which Valmet Automotive’s success has been built for over 50 years.
