As per the sustainability report, Trimble has additionally implemented a
comprehensive employee travel policy in response to the changing nature of work
and travel. This policy aims to further reduce the carbon footprint of the company
by maintaining employee travel levels at or below 50 per cent of pre-COVID levels. In
line with its strong commitment to promoting clean energy usage, Trimble has
started the construction of a 1.7-megawatt solar energy array at its headquarters in
Colorado. This innovative project will meet all of the facility’s electricity needs
starting in early 2024, marking a significant turning point in Trimble’s journey
toward renewable energy.
Paul Wallett, Regional Director of Trimble Solutions Middle East and India stated:
“Sustainability is incorporated into every stage of the construction process, from
design to maintenance to demolition. Adopting eco-friendly construction practices
has become essential in these processes as we continue to face environmental
challenges. Sustainable building materials are therefore becoming more popular as
a result of their capacity to lessen negative effects on the environment, preserve
natural resources, and increase the general longevity and efficiency of buildings.
Our goal is to advance this vision to drive positive changes in the industry with the
combined support and expertise of our suppliers and other stakeholders and
thereby achieve our ambitious goals for a greener future.”
According to reports and industry insights, construction practices in 2024 are
expected to continue prioritising sustainability, with a strong focus on lowering the
sector’s carbon footprint. Trimble aspires to continue advancing its sustainability
objectives and create safer, more environmentally friendly business practises with
the help of its suppliers and stakeholders, while encouraging more companies to be
part of the journey.
