Description
SKF has had a long history of working on enviromental issues in general and climate change in particular, but with this new strategy (acknowledged by WWF) the Group has raised the bar on our performance and contribution. The targets and related strategy will require incresed focus and resources accross the business, from R&D, product development, manufacturing, logisics and sales.
