ABOUT US
BUSINESS MODEL
CAPITAL DEFINITION
NATURAL CAPITAL
We understand the importance of natural elements and resources for our operations and society as a whole, and our responsibility to positively impact the environment.
HUMAN CAPITAL
Our human capital remains integral to the Group. We seek to develop and leverage the diverse competencies, capabilities and experience of our workforce to add continued value to our services and to the economy.
INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL
The intangible assets embodied within our Group have proven to be vital in maintaining our competitive advantage and brand reputation within our operating markets. We constantly pursue the improvement and protection of our processes through trademarks and software systems in different capacities within our companies.
SOCIAL CAPITAL
As a Group, we understand that we are not an individual entity. Rather, we are part of a large network of stakeholders and a community. It is with this understanding that we strive to build and uphold honourable relationships based on shared values, ethics and behaviours that are beneficial to all parties involved.
MANUFACTURED CAPITAL
Our manufactured capital remains a vital pillar in our industrial operations. Beyond our contribution in providing customers with this capital, our daily use of buildings, equipment and infrastructure focuses on optimising productivity, efficiency and innovation.
FINANCIAL CAPITAL
Our financial capital remains a linking factor between the other capitals. This capital continuously allows us to develop our business through investments and acquisitions for sustained value creation.
