CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY<br />
VALUES AND<br />
STRATEGY<br />
<strong>Trelleborg</strong>’s values:<br />
<strong>Trelleborg</strong>’s four fundamental values<br />
– customer focus, performance,<br />
innovation and responsibility – provide<br />
continuity in the Group’s activities for<br />
developing managers and employees.<br />
It is the responsibility of managers<br />
and employees to continuously work<br />
to integrate these values in each of<br />
the Group’s units. The Group provides<br />
brochures, presentations and printed<br />
materials to support these efforts.<br />
Business ethics in focus<br />
<strong>Trelleborg</strong>’s Code of Conduct and the related training for all employees contains<br />
specifi c sections that deal with competition issues. Additionally, the Group has<br />
a specifi c program regarding competition law issues (<strong>Trelleborg</strong> Competition Law<br />
Compliance Program), which includes communication of the Group’s clearly formulated<br />
policies, training, e-learning on the intranet and a newsletter.<br />
In addition, the program focuses on ensuring that everyone in the organization<br />
understands how competition law works, exactly what is legal/illegal and<br />
that cartel behavior is entirely unacceptable in the <strong>Trelleborg</strong> Group. All new<br />
managers must participate within six months of employment.<br />

<strong>Trelleborg</strong>’s “15 by 15” climate strategy<br />
<strong>Trelleborg</strong>’s goal is to reduce its direct<br />
and indirect carbon dioxide emissions<br />
by at least 15 percent, relative to<br />
sales, by the end of 2015 (“15 by<br />
15”), based on 2008 as the reference<br />
year. The emissions in question are<br />
caused by energy produced internally<br />
and included in Scope 1 of the Greenhouse<br />
Gas Protocol (see diagram<br />
above), as well as those caused by<br />
energy purchased for internal use,<br />
which corresponds to Scope 2 (see<br />
diagram).<br />
Ongoing Energy Excellence activities<br />
(see page 54) have aimed to<br />
<strong>Annual</strong> Report <strong>2011</strong> <strong>Trelleborg</strong> AB<br />
reduce energy consumption in<br />
<strong>Trelleborg</strong>’s production since 2009,<br />
and this has simultaneously led to<br />
an overall reduction in carbon dioxide<br />
emissions in total.<br />
Scope 3 includes indirect emissions<br />
from transport, travel, purchased<br />
materials, product use and waste<br />
management. Focus on reducing<br />
these types of indirect emissions is<br />
gradually increasing in Scope 3.<br />

Whistleblower<br />
�����������������<br />
process improved<br />
<strong>Trelleborg</strong>’s Whistleblower process<br />
was improved during the year. The<br />
purpose is to further strengthen<br />
employees’ integrity and safety, and<br />
to enable the use of fi rst languages.<br />
Employees can submit messages by<br />
phone or via the Internet. An external<br />
partner, People Intouch, receives<br />
the messages, translates them into<br />
English and delivers them to the<br />
company’s Compliance Offi cers.<br />
Feedback to the person who submits<br />
the messages takes place within<br />
one week.<br />
