Sustainable development goals

The UN’s Sustainable Development Goals are a call to action to ensure prosperity and at the same time protect the planet. Munters supports all 17 SDGs and has identified the following goals where we feel that we have a greater impact and thereby an opportunity to make a difference.

SDG 13: Climate action

We can make a significant difference through our offering and in our own operations. Our products are energy-efficient and help customers in every segment to reduce their energy consumption.

Our most important actions:

  • Offer innovative products and solutions that help customers to improve their energy efficiency with high quality and thereby lengthen the service life of our products
  • Continuously reduce our own electricity consumption and increase the share of renewable electricity. Gradually increase the share of electric vehicle

SDG 5: Gender equality

We are convinced that diversity leads to greater innovation and 
higher profit. We will have a corporate culture distinguished by 
equal treatment and equal opportunities for everyone, as well as reasonable compensation. Therefore, we are also working to increase the share of Munters employees and leaders who are women.


Our most important actions

  • Anti-discrimination policy and work
  • Actively promote diversity and inclusion
  • Committed and actively working according to the UN Target Gender Equality program
  • Periodic surveys on employee engagement and experiences
