Manntech’s commitment to sustainability

Manntech is a leading global provider of premium facade access solutions and part of Alimak Group. Present around the world with over 60 years of experience, Manntech has the widest range of configurable building maintenance units built on innovative, proven technologies which provide exceptional performance. Sustainability is integrated into all aspects of our business.

As a global leader Manntech endeavours to develop innovative facade access solutions with sustainability integrated into this process. Inspired by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, Manntech as part of Alimak Group has formulated a framework surrounding all strategic goals. This framework ensures that the brand operates consciously to achieve a set target to reduce its overall carbon footprint across the value chain by 30% by 2025.

Our sustainability framework is centred on three key pillars:

Sustainable Relationships

Sustainable relationships refer to the interaction between all partners within the supply chain. It is a critical consideration in Manntech’s endeavour to achieve sustainable operations. Consequently, the company aims to responsibly conduct business while promoting an inclusive and engaging workplace and expect business partners to do the same. Likewise, Manntech intends to engage in relevant ecosystems to transform towards increased sustainability in the relevant active markets.

Sustainable Solutions

Sustainable solutions are those that meet the needs of a present issue without negatively impacting the future. Our products and solutions are designed to minimise the impact on the environment throughout their lifetime, while assisting customers in increasing productivity and minimising their CO2 footprint. This is illustrated by the sourcing of Manntech steel from suppliers who provide new steel manufactured from reprocessed steel products. Equally, safe, and reliable solutions are part of Alimak Group’s DNA and core values.

Sustainable Operations

Manntech places environmental performance at the forefront of daily operations and we aim at minimizing the climate impact across all our operations. All procedures, processes and systems are designed to minimise the brand’s overall climate impact. An example of such a process is the waste management program in place to ensure all waste and the overall impact on the environment is kept to a minimum. Similarly, improving resource efficiency by digital means is a crucial area of consideration, guiding the endeavour to continue producing innovative technologies.

Manntech believes the key to long-term sustainability is innovation. The constant pursuit of new and inventive concepts keeps Manntech at the forefront of the industry, both today and into the future.
