Tristone Group 2023–2024 Sustainability Report

Tristone Group is pleased to announce the publication of its 2023–2024 Sustainability Report, prepared in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards. The report reflects the Group’s ongoing commitment to transparency, stakeholder engagement, and responsible business practices across all its global operations.

This year’s report highlights Tristone’s progress and performance in key Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) areas. It showcases Tristone’s continuous dedication to transparency, responsible business conduct, and sustainable development in all aspects of its operations.

Key highlights from the report include:

•                    Management of a company-wide GHG inventory aligned with the GHG Protocol, supported by dedicated software tools;

•                    Improved sustainability ratings on sustainability platforms

•                    Materiality assessment to identify the most relevant topics for Tristone’s stakeholders;

•                    Expansion of internal circular economy and life cycle assessment (LCA) programs across multiple products;

•                    Closer alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through dedicated sustainability goals;

•                    Certifications of occupational health & safety and energy management systems;

•                    Enhancement of Tristone’s sustainable procurement and supplier evaluation frameworks;

•                    Implementation of a Biodiversity Impact Assessment to evaluate how our activities may affect local ecosystems

•                    Community investment activities.

The report serves as a baseline for the company's sustainability roadmap, enhances Tristone’s competitive advantage in contract negotiations, particularly as ESG criteria become more prominent in procurement and investment decisions, and builds trust with OEM customers, suppliers, and financial institutions through ESG disclosure.

The full 2023–2024 Tristone Sustainability Report is now available on the company website.
