Sustainability

We aim to help our customers improve both their sustainability and profitability

MacGregor is a world-leading provider of cargo and load handling solutions with sustainability and performance at its heart. We aim to become the customer centric leader in sustainable maritime cargo and load handling by continuing to shape the marine and offshore industries through the most value-creating services and solutions. 

Our sustainability work is based on analysed impact. MacGregor has a holistic approach to managing its impacts in all three aspects of sustainability - environment, social and governance, ESG.

We support and follow Cargotec’s sustainability agenda through our business-specific sustainability action plan and targets. MacGregor’s sustainability performance is reported through Cargotec’s sustainability reporting.

MacGregor has implemented a Certificate of Approval, which is approved by Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance, and includes approval of all three standards in one certificate; ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environment) and ISO 45001 (Occupational Health and Safety).

Environment

MacGregor’s business requires natural resources, and an environmental footprint is created in all steps of our value chain. We see these challenges as an opportunity to improve our own business and our industry. The biggest environmental impacts are related to climate change and enabling circularity. We also monitor, address and report on other environmental impacts and emissions.

MacGregor is committed to pursuing science-based measures to limit global temperature rise to 1.5°C. We aim to significantly reduce our own emissions, and help customers to reduce emissions of their operations.
