Sustainability

At ASD we are passionate about our part in building a sustainable future and minimising the impact on our planet.

For us, sustainability is about much more than our impact on the earth’s natural resources. It is also about sustaining human communities and contributing towards sustainable development. We believe sustainability is the conjunction of Social, Environmental and Economic aspects, or to put in another way; PEOPLE, PLANET & PROFIT

Our Sustainability Mission

“We aim to transform our industry by playing an active role in building a sustainable future for our employees, customers, community and future generations. We care about social, economical and environmental wellbeing and have aligned our policies with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)”.

PEOPLE

We care for the well-being and development of our employees, customers and communities. We respect human rights, promote diversity and inclusion, and foster a culture of safety, health and learning.

PLANET

We reduce our environmental impact and contribute to the transition to a low-carbon economy. We optimise our use of natural resources, minimise our waste and emissions, and enhance our resilience to climate change.

PROFIT

We recognise that our purchasing decisions can affect society and the environment beyond our own operations. In making profit, we also give back to communities around us, our supply chain and those who surround our employees.
