We know that our everyday activities have an impact on the environment and that through our processes we are affecting the local and global well-being. We take environmental issues and questions seriously and try to reduce negative impacts to achieve sustainability in the environment that surrounds us. While doing this we follow the principle of working more preventively and not simply by using so called end-of-pipe measures.

Our ‘environmental tree’ represents our main focus on environment related issues.

Consumption of resources We monitor our resources and reuse as much as possible and reasonable			Environmental awareness By arranging training events and blending environmental questions into everyday work we increase knowledge, which is one of our  cornerstones
Past pollution Old war factory where we are located left behind pollution that we eliminate step by step			Restricted and/or banned substances We follow the rules and regulations of Estonian and EU legislation, for example RoHS
Waste handling We sort waste by types and direct as much as possible into recycling. We have two environmental permits which determine the amounts of waste and pollutants that we are allowed to emit into the environment.			Handling of chemicals We organise our way of storing and using chemicals so it does not cause any harm to neither the environment nor to our health.
