Valmet's global social responsibility program

Valmet’s social responsibility program is part of the company’s sustainability agenda implementation. The program is based on three themes promoting science, nature and equal opportunities: ‘Towards the future with science’, ‘Protecting the planet for next generations’ and ‘Equal opportunities for wellbeing’. Based on these themes, several local projects in Valmet’s operating areas around the world have been selected to the program.

Valmet has a long background with supporting local projects around the world. In 2020-2021 Valmet’s social responsibility program focused on supporting Save the Children organization's work in Dungarpur, India. Additionally, Valmet has supported SOS Children´s Village in Chennai since 2008 and has since 2016 made an annual seasonal donation to a selected non-profit organization such as the Ocean Cleanup, Plan International, Save the Children, WWF, UN Women and Doctors Without Borders.
