Trimble, a construc on technology leader, has highlighted a
number of key achievements and ini a ves in the
company’s latest sustainability report, including its role in ge ng 25 per cent of its suppliers to set Science-Based
Targets in 2022.
The significant accomplishment is consistent with its shared goal of lowering greenhouse gas emissions across the
industry, par cularly in the run-up to the highly an cipated COP 28 conference, which will focus on global climate
ac on, saud .
Trimble became one of the leading businesses taking immediate ac on against climate change last year when the
Science-Based Targets ini a ve (SBTi), a partnership of the CDP, the United Na ons Global Compact, the World
Resources Ins tute, and the Worldwide Fund for Nature, approved of its emissions reduc on targets.
As a vital step in ensuring that environmental responsibility extends throughout the whole supply chain, Trimble
encouraged its top suppliers to submit climate data to the CDP in recogni on of the cri cal role that suppliers play in
the sustainability ecosystem.
The construc on technology leader also assigned procurement and sustainability goals to all of its suppliers,
demonstra ng the company’s commitment to aligning its partners with the firm’s strategic goals.
As per the sustainability report, Trimble has addi onally 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% of pre-Covid levels. In line with its strong commitment to promo ng clean energy usage, Trimble has
started the construc on of a 1.7MW solar energy array at its headquarters in Colorado.
This innova ve project will meet all of the facility’s electricity needs star ng in early 2024, marking a significant
turning point in Trimble’s journey toward renewable energy.
Paul Walle , Regional Director of Trimble Solu ons Middle East and India, said: "Sustainability is incorporated into
every stage of the construc on process, from design to maintenance to demoli on. Adop ng eco-friendly
construc on prac ces has become essen al in these processes as we con nue to face environmental challenges."
"Sustainable building materials are therefore becoming more popular as a result of their capacity to lessen nega ve
effects on the environment, preserve natural resources, and increase the general longevity and efficiency of
buildings," he stated.
