On 23 July 2024 at Malmaison Reading Hotel, the SSE (Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks) organised the Dinner/Award ceremony for the distribution of the Sustainability Supplier Awards 2024. Tratos won in the Individual/Team category, in recognition of Prof. Bragagni’s efforts that have gone above and beyond to achieve sustainability in Tratos’ business.
In accepting the Award on behalf of Tratos, Prof. Maurizio Bragagni Esq OBE said: “I am honoured and proud to accept the SSEN Sustainability Award on behalf of the wonderful Tratos team. The team works tirelessly with passion to uphold Tratos’ sustainability performance across a wide range of issues. This award will further motivate the team to accelerate the use of cutting-edge technology in providing solutions to Tratos’ clients to help enhance their ‘green credentials”.
Tratos Group, a world-renowned independent cable manufacturer, has made notable strides in sustainability. Recognising the increasing importance of environmental responsibility in industrial operations, Tratos has committed itself to integrating sustainable practices into its business strategy.
Tratos has developed a comprehensive sustainability strategy that aligns with global environmental goals and standards. The company’s commitment is evident through its active pursuit of sustainability awards and implementation of environmentally friendly practices across its manufacturing processes.
A CDP discloser and member of the Made in Britain Green Growth Initiative, Tratos has received accolades for our commitment to innovation and sustainability, including the Queen’s Enterprise Award for Innovation, Silver medals for multiple years by EcoVadis- the world’s most trusted business sustainability ratings and ESG compliance solution. And a perfect Sustainability score of 100 by Achilles- a leader in sustainability supply management platforms, and many local prizes. These accolades recognise Tratos’ exceptional efforts to minimise its environmental footprint while maintaining high production quality and efficiency standards.
Such awards, including the SSE Sustainability Award, are critical as they validate the company’s efforts and encourage the adoption of similar practices within the industry.
Tratos has enacted several operational changes to reduce its environmental impact. These include modifications in our manufacturing processes to decrease waste, improve energy efficiency, and utilise eco-friendly materials. By integrating these practices, Tratos not only mitigates its ecological footprint but also sets a benchmark for sustainable manufacturing within the cable industry.
Beyond internal changes, Tratos engages in strategic partnerships to promote sustainability on a broader scale. These collaborations allow Tratos to leverage shared knowledge and resources, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of our sustainable initiatives. Working alongside industry partners and sustainability experts, Tratos ensures our strategies align with cutting-edge environmental practices and technological advancements.
Understanding that sustainability extends beyond corporate practices, Tratos invests in community engagement and education. We actively participate in programs designed to raise awareness about environmental issues and encourage sustainable practices among consumers and the broader community. This holistic approach ensures a more significant impact, fostering a culture of sustainability that transcends organisational boundaries.
