Höganäs publishes sustainability report

Höganäs says that its sustainability report for 2020 is now online.

‘2020 was a challenging year, as COVID-19 impacted the world on unprecedented levels,’ the company said. ‘However, even as the pandemic took hold, Höganäs was still able to make signifi-cant progress towards a number of sustainability targets.’

According to Höganäs, 51% of energy used came from renewable or part-renewable resources, while it had an 8.1% reduction in energy use per produced tonne between 2010 and 2020. 49% of the company’s total raw material base consists of secondary or recycled materials, and 80% of all process residuals are diverted from disposal.
