Sustainability

A core measure of AMMEGA’s sustainability success is the value it creates for our customers. Within our portfolio, we have strategically developed belting solutions that deliver specific environmental and social benefits — aligning intentional design with our customers’ commercial and sustainability goals. By combining technical expertise with deep stakeholder engagement, we continue to innovate across the full product lifecycle without compromising on safety or quality.

We have identified five core elements that define AMMEGA’s process to designing and manufacturing sustainable belting products and services. This framework covers the full product lifecycle: from raw material sourcing, operational efficiencies and lifespan, through to the end-of-life treatment of physical assets.

We recognise our unique position in driving industrial automation while decoupling this progress from its negative environmental impact. Proactive climate mitigation is a cornerstone of our strategy — an area where we continue to invest and deepen our understanding. By prioritising renewable energy, streamlining operations and engineering lower-carbon products, we are committed to driving tangible progress for our customers and the entire value chain.

To identify our climate impacts, risks and opportunities, we track AMMEGA’s carbon footprint, aligned to the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol, and report this information annually. This incorporates emissions generated across direct operations and indirect business activities (scope 1, 2 and 3). For energy consumption, we monitor site-level consumption.

We have been working towards a carbon intensity reduction (scope 1 and 2) by 50% by 2035 (from a 2019 baseline). In 2026, we will build upon this, setting validated targets with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), in line with the latest climate science. This marks an important step forward for AMMEGA’s environmental progress, but also our industry – as we expect to be one of the first belting providers to do so.

With 6,000 employees across 40 countries, we succeed through ONE AMMEGA – a philosophy that celebrates our global diversity and collective expertise under a unified vision. By empowering our people in an environment where unique passion and skills are both protected and developed, we drive innovation that creates lasting value for our customers, our communities and our future.

Our journey to zero harm defines AMMEGA’s approach to health and safety: a firm commitment to eliminating workplace hazards across our global footprint. Recognising the inherent risks of belt manufacturing, we constantly refine our safety protocols to protect our people and uphold the highest standards of operational excellence.

We maintain a comprehensive safety matrix built upon rigorous internal monitoring, global safety policies and our Golden Rules of Safety. By aligning our operations with international benchmarks, such as OSHA, we establish a best-in class foundation for operational success. These global standards serve as the essential mechanisms for ensuring consistency across all sites and facilities.

Safety is a shared responsibility that must be embedded within our everyday culture, creating a safer and more resilient workplace for everyone. To drive this, we establish Group-level targets each year — improving upon the previous year’s benchmarks — which are then translated into individual performance development plans.

With robust compliance practices, we ensure that every AMMEGA brand, site and team operates with transparency, accountability and ethical integrity.

We view regulatory requirements as our foundation, striving to move beyond legal obligations to implement best-in-class policies and procedures that set an industry standard.

By integrating environmental, social and ethical standards into our supply chain, our global procurement efforts focus on driving innovation while mitigating commercial, operational and reputational risks. Through our collaborative network of partners, we deliver sustainable solutions that ensure AMMEGA remains the local partner of choice for customers seeking responsible and reliable belting products and services.

Evolving regulations like the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) and CSRD drive greater transparency across our supply chain. These frameworks encourage us to improve visibility, integrate sustainability into core business discussions and collaborate with partners on the journey toward responsible business.
