Continued focus on energy consumption Hempel significantly reduced energy consumption per ton of product manufactured from 2002 to 2007, mainly due to energy saving efforts and increased production. Since 2008, we have managed to keep our energy consumption stable, despite opening more automated factories, which reduce the risk of accidents and waste (high priorities for us), but also use relatively more energy. Total energy in kWh per ton product manufactured In 2012, energy consumption remained around level with previous years, despite the opening of more automated factories.

These audits are an important part of our risk management efforts, and help ensure the safety of our employees and the uninterrupted supply of products to our customers. In 2012, we conducted HSe audits in seven of our factories, as well as HSe inspections of our warehouses, external warehouses, Hempel offi ces and customer sites where our coating advisers work. The audits help ensure we comply with local legal requirements and our own high standards. ISO and OHSAS certifications We have global ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 certifi cates, illustrating our commitment to quality and HSe. In 2012: • Our sites in Bahrain and Guangzhou achieved certifi cation according to the ISO 14001 standard. As a result, 28 Hempel sites are now ISO 14001 certifi ed. • Our Guangzhou factory obtained OHSAS 18001 certifi cation, bringing the number of OHSAS-certifi ed Hempel sites to seven. • Our factories in India and Argentina achieved ISO 9001 certifi cation, bringing the number of ISO 9001 certifi ed sites to 47. 16
New factory better for the environment Opened in February 2012, our factory in Pilar in Argentina is designed to produce more than 10 million litres of coatings each year. The factory uses the latest technology to ensure good working conditions for staff and minimum impact on the environment. This includes new dissolvers that employ an advanced vibration technique to ensure the powder is dispensed with the minimum of dust released into the air. introduction about hempel Ethical behaviour HEALTH & SAFETY Environment Environment: Reducing VOC emissions Procurement our people Community engagement Financial results
