suppliers, demonstrating the company’s commitment to aligning its partners with the firm’s
strategic goals.
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.
