Trimble's sustainability efforts gain momentum as 25 per cent of suppliers commit to Science-Based Targets - Middle East Ne…
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.
