Vores mål i tal

I vores egen drift

Alongside our work with our customers, we grow our impact through our operations. We are making continued progress toward our 2030 Positive Impact ambition around water, climate, engagement and inclusion, and safety.

Opnåelse af netto-positiv vandpåvirkning

Progressing Toward Net Positive Water Impact

Global vandknaphed kræver fortsat hurtig handling i hele verden. As a critical resource to all, responsible stewardship and use of water ties our commitment to our shareholders and communities tightly together. It is a business and social imperative that we grow fast, grow our impact and grow our teams as we work together to address the global water crisis.

Vores vision om en sikker vandforsyning i fremtiden er afhængig af håndgribelig handling. For Ecolab betyder det, at vi fortsætter med at drive vandforvaltning sammen med vores kunder, samtidig med, at vi identificerer muligheder for at implementere vandforvaltningsprojekter i vores egen drift. I 2030 er det vores mål at:

  • Ved at reducere vandforbruget med 40 % pr. produktionsenhed på tværs af vores virksomhed i forhold til vores 2018-basisår
  • Ved at opsamle mere end 50 % af vores absolutte forbrug af ferskvand på højrisikosteder
  • Opnå Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS)-standardcertificering i højrisiko-vandskel 

Vi reducerede den totale grad af vandpåvirkning med 29 % fra vores basisår 2018 med:

  • Implementering af Ecolabs løsninger som f.eks. 3D TRASAR™ og Water Flow Intelligence, samt brug af digitale værktøjer som Smart Water Navigator, til at understøtte smart vandforvaltningspraksis

Vi genoprettede vandforsyning i vores lokalsamfund, reducerede og genopfyldte 64 % af vores absolutte vandudtag på højrisikosteder ved at:

  • Samarbejde med partnere inden for de lokale vandreservoirer, hvor vi opererer, for at forstå fælles vandudfordringer og løse dem med naturbaserede løsninger
  • Fuldføre vandeffektivitets- og genbrugsprojekter, der reducerer vores afhængighed af vandforsyninger fra lokalsamfundet

Vi har opnået Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS)-certificering på 13 af vores anlæg.

At håndtere CO2-udledninger

At håndtere CO2-udledninger

By decarbonizing our business and empowering customers to do the same, we are driving positive business performance while helping tackle the urgent challenge of climate change.

Ecolab has near-term science-based targets approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 50% by 2030 from a 2018 base year. We have committed to achieving 100% renewable electricity by 2030 and to reaching net-zero emissions by 2050*. We are also working to reduce Ecolab's Scope 3 emissions by 25% by 2030 from a 2022 base year across a portion of purchased goods and services, fuel- and energy-related activities, upstream transportation and distribution, and downstream leased assets.

*Includes a 90% absolute reduction of Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions from 2018 base year and Scope 3 GHG emissions from 2022 base year.

Som hjælp til at nå vores mål bruger vi en kombination af taktikker understøttet af videnskabsbaserede strategier. I 2024

  • Reducerede vi det absolutte omfang 1 og 2 kulstofemissioner med 33 % i forhold til vores 2018-basisår ved at fokusere på procesforbedringsprojekter, der reducerede det samlede energiforbrug med næsten 13,7 milliarder BTU'er
  • Købte vi 71 % af vores samlede elektricitet fra vedvarende energikilder
  • Accelerated our vehicle fleet electrification projects, particularly in North America through a collaboration with Ford Pro™ and in Europe through having EVs as part of our standard car selector process

At understøtte diversitet og en inkluderende arbejdsstyrke 

Fostering an Engaged and Inclusive Workforce

Ecolab's commitment to engagement and inclusivity is at the core of our success. We seek to foster a culture that reflects our longstanding value of collaborating to include diverse perspectives that challenge us to reach our goals and do what's right.

Purposefully investing in a thriving culture that honors inclusion and belonging is essential to being a purpose-driven company. As such, we strive to advance our organization by:

  • Identifying the best qualified candidates by expanding applicant pools and associate pipelines to attract, develop and retain a broad range of talent in management roles
  • Providing individuals equal access to leadership opportunities irrespective of gender, ethnicity or background
  • Fremme af en kultur af rummelighed og følelse af at høre til gennem medarbejderressourcegrupper for medarbejdere med alle baggrunde
  • Investering i processer og systemer, der giver gennemsigtighed

In 2024, we achieved:

  • 81% engagement score, a measure of an associate’s emotional commitment to our organization and goals—maintaining an all-time high for Ecolab
  • 85% Inclusion index, showing in part how our inclusion work is impacting employees and helping them feel valued and fully seen
  • 90% of our associates feeling included as part of a team among their co-workers

At prioritere sikkerhed overalt hvor vi arbejder for vores Goal Zero

At prioritere sikkerhed overalt hvor vi arbejder for vores Goal Zero

Our safety goal is always zero incidents, and this goal has no expiration date; safety is a commitment we reaffirm every day. Through our Goal Zero Mindset, we place great value on training and education, both at our own facilities and at customer locations.

We assess risk before we start work, identify and address safety issues and remedy hazardous situations-at any Ecolab location and wherever we operate. Employees are trained to assess risk and empowered to stop work any time conditions are considered unsafe. And we aim to train and educate our associates to perform their work with care and safety each and every day.
