Dormer Pramet aims to lead a change in the metalworking industry by making sustainability an integral part of its business.

At the core of this strategy is the use of new technologies and ways of working that deliver value for employees, customers and suppliers, brought together under a program called ‘Make the Shift’.

This encompasses a wide range of initiatives and targets under four key headings; Circularity, Climate, People and Fair Play. A list of key actions and objectives are now in place with the aim to deliver all by 2030. This includes increasing recycling of its products and packaging material, reducing waste, lowering its CO2 impact, halving the total recorded injury frequency rate, developing a diverse and inclusive workforce and engaging in community involvement projects.

An example of the very tangible results already achieved by this initiative comes from Dormer Pramet’s production and R&D department. Through international collaboration, a project team has made innovative technological developments which have enabled significant reductions in energy consumption and, at the same time, improved product quality.
