CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY
We take responsibility for our partners, employees, society, and the environment
Corporate responsibility is an integral part of how we operate and develop BORG Automotive Group. We aim to create long-term value while acting responsibly towards the people and partners we work with, the communities around us and the environment. Through clear ambitions, measurable targets and continuous improvement, we work to turn this responsibility into action.
As part of the Danish conglomerate Schouw & Co., our approach is guided by a common framework – the Responsibility Wheel – which provides a clear direction for our CSR and ESG efforts. It focuses on three areas: producing efficiently and responsibly, protecting workers and ensuring attractive workplaces, and promoting innovation and strong governance.
Circular economy at the heart of our business
For more than 50 years, remanufacturing and a circular business model have been at the heart of BORG Automotive Group. By giving used automotive parts a new life, we extend their lifecycle and keep products and materials in circulation for longer.
Our circular business model is supported by a return system, where used parts are returned to us and enter the remanufacturing process. Here, they are dismantled, cleaned and thoroughly inspected before components are remanufactured or replaced as needed. The finished products are then returned to the market, while used parts continue to flow back into the system.
Since 2021, our offering has also included newly manufactured spare parts. Across our business, we work to operate responsibly and continuously improve our environmental and social performance. This includes working together with suppliers and business partners to identify opportunities to reduce environmental impact throughout our value chain.
Our circular foundation goes back more than five decades, while our structured approach to ESG has continued to develop over time. In 2019, we formalised this work further by defining our own ESG goals and strengthening our ESG reporting. Since then, ESG has become an increasingly integrated part of how we set ambitions, measure progress and develop our business responsibly.
