About us

Sustainability

Caring for the world around us

At Stena Recycling, sustainability is strongly integrated in the core of what we do. Together with our customers and partners, our operations create value in the form of reduced climate impact as well as more efficient use of resources. But sustainability is not only about the climate and natural resources. It is also about taking care of each other – both at work and in society.

For us, sustainability is about taking care of resources and leading the transition to a circular economy. It is also about implementing a sustainable perspective in all aspects of our operations - striving for positive impact on both people, the planet, and the way we conduct our business.

Building a strong, caring culture together

At Stena Recycling, as part of Stena Metall Group, we aim to contribute to a more sustainable society, both through the circular solutions we provide, but also in how we conduct our business.

Value creation

We strive to create the greatest possible value for business owners, our customers, our partners and society. This also means creating long-term sustainable value that future generations will benefit from.

Care for the environment

Society is facing major challenges to cope with climate change. We have a structured, long-term strategy to continuously optimize how we use resources and contribute to a more sustainable society.

Care for people

We believe everyone should have the opportunity to grow and take responsibility in their role. We also believe value is added when people with different skills and backgrounds are part of the team. This is our culture.

We want to build responsible relationships with our employees, customers, partners and the world around us. Our Code of Conduct and Code of Conduct for Business Partners ensures our relationships are built on integrity and respect.
