Sustainability

We have a responsibility to ourselves, our customers and society, to take a long-term approach in everything we do. Sustainable entrepreneurship and corporate social responsibility are a prerequisite for our survival.

Building for the future and future generations has been the backbone of our business since the early days of Stena. For us, corporate social responsibility means trying to reduce our impact on the environment, acting ethically and contributing to economic development. At the same time, we strive to improve the quality of life for our employees, their families and society at large.

Our relentless effort towards sustainable solutions in all stages of the lifecycle guide our everyday activities and shape our business. Employing new technology and propel innovation to continuously improve the services we provide is our mission supporting the vision for Stena Teknik. This is manifested in for example:

  • The rapid technological development, combined with increased sustainability requirements, means that we must make use of all the knowledge that exists within the Group in order to lead the industry's transformation to renewable fuels and electrification.
