To govern the identified risk and negative value chain impact from using virgin materials, we have adopted a ‘Resource management policy’, covering all of our activities and locations. The policy’s objective is to ensure that we minimise the use and depletion of virgin resources by developing circular value chains together with our suppliers, where feasible, and guide our efforts on sustainable sourcing. It further addresses our adherence to the waste hierarchy, prioritising waste avoidance by reducing and reusing before recycling.

To enhance our understanding and management of resource inflows, we are actively working with suppliers to explore lower-emissions alternatives and aim to establish closer collaboration for obtaining data on the composition of their products, including the percentage of reused or recycled materials. Steel is a primary focus at this stage, given its significant role in renewable energy infrastructure and its high potential for recyclability.
