Elkem sustainability magazine 2017 and GRI report for 2017 is ready

Corporate social responsibility is one of the building...

Elkem has a strong commitment to sustainable development and responsible business behaviour. This year we have done our sustainability reporting a little differently. We have collected the highlights of Elkem’s sustainability performance in the Elkem Sustainability Magazine 2017.

Corporate social responsibility is one of the building blocks of the Elkem culture and it’s the way we conduct business. To stay competitive Elkem must be at the forefront of technology, as we have been for over a hundred years.

In 2017 Elkem Silicones was the first to launch a project to integrate silicones into 3D printing of personalised orthoses, prostheses, anatomic models and long-term implants to the health-care market. This is just one of the many interesting case studies of Elkem’s commitment to sustainable development and responsible business behavior highlighted in this year’s Sustainability Magazine.

Elkem reports on sustainability in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiatives’ (GRI) Standards: core option, which you can find in our GRI report 2017.
