We are working to become a carbon-neutral business, provide sustainable products and chart our progress against international benchmarks

As a leading manufacturer and supplier of cable management solutions, customers in all industries around the world rely on us to deliver sustainable quality products. We take that responsibility seriously and are dedicated to reducing our carbon footprint and waste.

Our passion for sustainability is rooted in our heritage of providing lightweight and efficient product solutions to our customers.

Achieving a more sustainable future requires continuous innovation driven by motivated people. We therefore firmly believe that providing opportunities for growth, inclusion and employee engagement is fundamental to the success of our strategy.

Our commitments

As a global company with a reputation for manufacturing excellence and reliable local distribution, HellermannTyton is focused on reducing the resources we consume and minimising the impact our operations have on the environment.

We aim to advance sustainability through product innovation and collaboration with customers and partners. We are working to achieve carbon neutrality and to encourage and enable our employees to make positive differences to the sustainability of our environment and society through our business activities.

Our top sustainability priorities at a glance

  • Minimise our environmental impact
  • Champion more sustainable materials and products
  • Transparent, ethical & sustainable supply chains
  • Zero harm to employees in the workplace
  • Carbon neutral operations by 2040
Read on below for an overview of each strategic pillar


Product: Designing for efficiency and circularity

We aim to drive the innovation of more sustainable products, considering materials, their lifecycle, reuse or subsequent recyclability.

Designing for efficiency and circularity: We understand that every contribution to reducing emissions through weight reduction and lower energy consumption counts in the long run, as does designing for reuse and improving the recyclability of our products at the end of their use. Through collaboration with our customers, suppliers and partners, we are confident that we will continue to make the biggest differences at the product level through weight reduction, design and material innovation.

Product targets

Champion more sustainable materials and products

  • Consult on alternatives with lower overall impact.
  • Integrate more sustainably innovative materials.
  • Successively provide sustainability data for all products.
  • Reduce the impact of packaging across all supply chains.

Planet: Minimising impact

We are working to minimise the environmental impact of our operations and to become a carbon-neutral business.

Becoming a carbon-neutral business: Injection moulding, extrusion and toolmaking are energy intensive. Utilising renewable energy is a key part of our strategy to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions generated by our operations. We also pledge to maximise engineering and production equipment efficiency and minimise unnecessary energy and material consumption throughout the company.

Planet targets

Carbon neutral operations by 2040

  • Power operations with 100% renewable energy by 2030.
  • Certify all manufacturing sites to ISO14001 and ISO50001.
  • Cut operational waste by 50% by 2030 (base year 2024).
  • Lower water use in high-stress locations.
