Trimble, a construction technology company, recently released its 2021 sustainability report, which outlines the company’s goals for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and achieving a net-zero future. This year, the company’s emission reduction targets for the Science Based Targets (SBTs) submission were approved.
The Sustainability Report focuses on the company’s efforts and achievements in the areas of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG). It emphasizes the company’s dedication to sustainability, end-user industry solutions, community philanthropy via the Trimble Foundation Fund, employee engagement and development, and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives.
It has also been observed that new regulations are expected to be introduced as a result of the increased government emphasis on mitigating the effects of climate change, which may have an impact on project completion. However, the report emphasizes how Trimble’s solutions can be used to develop projects sustainably and on time. Trimble’s commitment to upholding sustainable construction standards and prioritizing the use of construction technology in the sector is emphasized in the report. Trimble’s Science Based Targets (SBTs) submission was approved this year, adding to the evidence. These targets, which encourage emission reductions throughout Trimble’s operations and value chain, will help the company accelerate its efforts to combat climate change in the Middle East and around the world.
Paul Wallett, the Regional Director of Trimble Solutions Middle East and India, said: “Since 1978, Trimble’s industry-specific solutions have helped businesses accomplish more, while promising a lower environmental impact. The Middle East is one of the area’s most susceptible to climate change, and the building and construction sector may be one of the major contributors to this phenomenon. As the need for sustainability becomes more urgent in the Middle East, we remain committed to acting quickly to leverage opportunities that protect the environment and make society more resilient, productive, and connected. Our Sustainability Report details this vision, as well as our solutions that meet highest sustainability standards and help develop sustainable projects.”
Trimble’s integrated solutions are designed to reduce fuel consumption, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and improve the efficiency, accuracy, and reliability of heavy earthmoving equipment, resulting in faster job completion.
Tekla Structures 2022, Tekla Structural Designer 2022, Tekla Tedds 2022, and Tekla PowerFab 2022 are the latest versions of the company’s Tekla® software solutions for constructible Building Information Modeling (BIM), structural engineering, and steel fabrication management. Tekla Structures and Tekla Structural Designer, in line with Trimble’s commitment to sustainable workflows, provide dynamic embodied carbon calculation functionality for both the design and detailing processes via an Embodied Carbon Calculator.
This visual and dynamic calculations tool can be used by structural engineers to compare different design options and their associated carbon loads. Trimble lays the groundwork for a net-zero future across all of its projects by incorporating sustainable practices into the design process, aiming to promote sustainability in the industry.
