Scania’s Annual Report and Sustainability Report for 2014 are available from
today on scania.com. The Annual Report, which outlines Scania’s operations,
strategy and financial performance, is available in English and Swedish, while
the Sustainability Report, which provides in-depth reporting on sustainability
performance, is available in English.
The Sustainability Report for 2014 highlights continued achievements in reducing the
carbon footprint for customers as well as in Scania’s own operations. Scania has the
stated aim of being the leader in sustainable transport.
“I see no conflict between logistical efficiency, CO2 reductions, social and ethical
responsibility and strong financial performance; to me, they are a prerequisite,” says
Scania’s President and CEO Martin Lundstedt.
A key message is that the potential to increase the efficiency of today’s transport
services is huge and creates several new business opportunities for Scania. Scania
is well-positioned to optimise logistics flows — not only for Scania’s customers but
for their customers as well. This requires a deep understanding of the logistics flow
from production to distribution and sales — an approach that is firmly established at
Scania.
Important areas going forward will be integrated transport solutions, alternative fuels
and hybridisation with greater emphasis on electrification.
“We want to bring a new way of thinking about transport – one that is innovationdriven,
systems-based and founded on collaboration,” says Martin Lundstedt. “By
partnering with our customers and other stakeholders, we build real understanding of
what is needed to transform transport systems and embed efficiency throughout the
value chain.”
