ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE (ESG) Our commitment to positive change |
Environmental, social and governance have been long embedded in Survitec through various pioneering initiatives. In 2022 we commenced a journey of analysing our efforts, setting benchmarks, and forming an ESG committee responsible for driving forward our future vision.
As our ESG strategy develops, we are proactively working with multiple stakeholders across our business to improve our processes and procedures to ensure transparent reporting. Our initiatives focus on transparent governance and our commitment to the world we live in through a fairer society, a healthier planet and a more sustainable business.
Through all our decisions and actions, we have a responsibility to think about the legacy we leave behind.
OUR
OBJECTIVES
OUR COMMITMENTS
|
Environmental Safety is what we do, and our products are who we are. To regulate our environmental footprint, we look at our products and see how we can reduce our impact on the environment. In line with our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) strategy we now also supply fluorine free foam concentrates for our low expansion foam systems and applications, and fluorine-free foam fire extinguishers, to meet our customers’ needs. An update in our MK4 design means that fabric welding will reduce Volatile Organic Compounds (Voc’). Our commitment to renewable energy can be visible from the fact that all of our Survitec sites in the UK are now on 100% renewable sourced contracts. |
Fluorine free foams
Research has shown PFAS substances to be persistent, bio-accumulative and toxic. The properties that make these substances so successful at resisting water, oil and grease etc, also make these substances very difficult to break down.
Environmental impact reduction
Mk4 liferaft design updated in production from mid-October 2025. The new design uses fabric welding, reducing Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) as well as oil-based inks replaced by water-based inks. Each lifeaft uses 20 g of ink on average.

Social At Survitec, a colleague’s journey is important to us. We believe wellbeing is essential to building a safe, inclusive, and highperforming team. Over the past year, we’ve made significant strides in supporting our colleagues, with a strong focus on stress awareness and proactive wellbeing management. We have rolled out training programmes supplemented by selfguided plans for individuals, and toolkits for managers to support and equip leaders. Our annual Purpose Day continues to be one of our most important community actions.

Governance Our governance procedures form the backbone of our operational and decision-making processes, providing structure, accountability, and consistency across Survitec. To ensure the continued effectiveness of a robust, long-term Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) strategy, we undertook a comprehensive reset of its ERM Framework. This reset was informed by an in-depth review and deep-dive assessment, designed to strengthen risk identification, enhance oversight, and ensure the framework remains aligned with our evolving strategic priorities and risk landscape.
