Our focus on sustainable growth lies at the heart of our business strategy. Through the strategy we seek to incorporate sustainability across our activities, a process which is informed by our double materiality assessment and our broader management of our environmental and social impact. Through our strategy and responsible business practices, we contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) which form the blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for our planet.

Our strategy dictates the effective management of risks and opportunities related to our business. Relevant social and environmental topics are identified from both the outcome of our double materiality assessment process, as well as our structured approach to managing our broader impact.
