Seco Tools has unveiled a new digital tool designed to assist its production units in achieving ambitious sustainability targets. The Industrial Sustainability Assessment, initially launched in 2023, aims to streamline sustainability efforts across Seco’s global sites by providing a structured approach to assess and improve environmental and social practices.
The tool, now digitised in MyPages, helps sites track their progress towards Seco’s global sustainability goals, which include achieving 90% circular waste by 2030 and Net-Zero operations by 2035. It covers key areas such as People and Communities, Climate Biodiversity and Circularity, Site Specific sustainability, and Supplier management. The assessment defines six levels of sustainability, from basic legal compliance to best practices, allowing sites to identify and prioritise areas for improvement.
Seco’s initiative was co-developed with sites in Sweden and the Netherlands, ensuring the tool is practical and user-friendly. Since its digital rollout in 2024, the tool has enabled sites to create action plans, track progress, and share best practices, enhancing their sustainability performance.
Looking ahead, Seco is exploring the potential for an externally adapted version of the tool for stakeholders and customers. This move could extend the tool’s benefits beyond Seco’s operations, promoting broader sustainability practices in the industry.
