Planet

At THOR, we want to do what is right for the world we live in. This means responsibly growing our business while continually improving our environmental performance.

Thor

Our pillar topics

Climate change and energy

We’re determined to do more to address the climate emergency. That means cutting our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy use as we transition to a low-carbon economy.

Pollution prevention

At THOR, we know how important it is to balance the needs of our customers and business with our environmental responsibilities.

Waste management and circular economy

We aim to cut operational waste and reduce material use across our value chain, focusing on high-impact end-of-life stages. We also collaborate with partners, customers and end-users to support responsible disposal and packaging reuse.

Waster management, biodiversity, and ecosystems

We’re acutely aware of the importance to the planet of managing water resources responsibly.

Environmental initiatives

Every THOR business around the world has already, and will continue to, undertake initiatives to lessen their impact, optimise processes, and improve their environment locally.
