INTEGRATED SUSTAINABILITY FOR LASTING VALUE

As a leading player in global shipbuilding, we feel a deep responsibility to operate sustainably, combining competitiveness with environmental and social sustainability to create lasting value.

For us, sustainability is not just an opportunity, but a commitment to serve as a model of excellence, with an approach that permeates our entire business.

In this way, we aim to meet the challenges of a globalized world that demands increasing attention to the impacts of industrial processes on the environment and society.

OUR SUSTAINABILITY CULTURE
To translate this vision into tangible actions, we spread a culture of sustainability among our people, so that each individual can bring the core principles of social responsibility into their daily work, helping to meet the expectations of all stakeholders.
Our international commitment
To formalize and make this commitment externally binding, since 2019 we have adhered to the United Nations Global Compact, the world’s largest business sustainability initiative. It is a voluntary commitment to ten universal principles relating to human rights, labor, the environment, and anti-corruption, promoting sustainability values in the long term through policies, business practices, and social and civic behaviors.
