Sustainability
Sustainable growth
Increasing sustainable financial returns is central to Skellerup’s philosophy.
Sustainability at Skellerup has broad meaning. It means working closely with customers so that we truly understand their needs to enable us to build long-lasting, valuable relationships. It means developing and investing in our people so that we have the expertise to grow and sustainably meet our customers’ needs. And it means minimising emissions and waste to ensure our activities contribute positively to the communities and environments in which we operate.
Skellerup recognises that the effects of climate change will impact where and how we will invest for future growth and how we will ensure the safety of our people and operations to continue to deliver to our customers. Skellerup prepares annual group climate statements in accordance with the Aotearoa New Zealand Climate Standards. You can review our recent report on pages 42 to 75 of Skellerup’s FY25 Annual Report. You can also view our Environmental Policy here and our Site Certifications here.
Over the past five years, we have reduced the intensity of our scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by a cumulative 65%. Investing in new, more efficient equipment, improving manufacturing processes and utilising lower omitting energy sources such as solar have all contributed to this success.
Looking forward, we will continue to seek and invest in solutions that generate value for customers and minimise the environmental impact on our communities.
