IN SUSTAINABILITY WORK, PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE

Major changes rarely happen overnight, and significant

improvements usually require several years of

determined and well-planned work. At Pintos, one such

long-term project has been the reduction of carbon

dioxide emissions. Pintos switched to using carbonfree

electricity in 2024, which led to a significant drop

in Scope 1 and 2 emissions.

We are continuously developing our operations. One

major recent area of improvement has been

strengthening reinforcement design. When considering

reinforcement solutions for a construction site, we

support the customer and can assist in designing the

most suitable reinforcement package for the project.

The builder saves time, money, and natural resources

with tailored reinforcement solution. Another important

area of change has been the development of our own

production processes. Over the past year, we have

especially focused on the production processes of our

industrial nail factory, successfully modernizing and

streamlining them. The result is a product with a

smaller carbon footprint and improved quality.

One of the most current and significant topics in our

industry today is the sustainability of steel suppliers.

Increasingly, steel is being imported to the Baltic Sea

region from very distant locations, even from North

Africa and China.

This is a worrying trend. Long sea transports create

large emissions, and it is difficult to verify the

sustainability of the factories. Steel mills in North Africa

use fossil fuels for energy, and billets can be shipped

to rolling mills from very far away. Sustainability cannot

be achieved in the construction sector if not everyone

plays by the same rules. It also distorts competition

and damages the reputation of the entire construction

industry.

At Pintos, we only use products from well-known

European steel manufacturers. The scrap material is

traceable and primarily comes from by-products of

European industry. The billets are produced in

European steel mills and rolled into wire and

reinforcing steel in the mills' own rolling facilities.

European legislation and its enforcement ensure that

occupational safety standards in these factories are

high. Increasingly, these factories also prefer European

carbon-free energy in their production—just like we do

at Pintos.

DEVELOPING OPERATIONS

THROUGH INVESTMENTS

We believe that economic sustainability

forms the foundation for all other

dimensions of sustainability. A

sustainable company takes care of its

own profitability and competitiveness to

ensure long-term viability.

In addition to profitable and sustainable

business operations, economic

sustainability also encompasses risk

management and governance practices.

This means achieving good results

through sustainable means. The

economic impact of our operations is

significant for our stakeholders and for

society.

Investments

Market conditions and the resulting

changes in the operating environment can

shift rapidly. Pintos has protected itself

against these risks by steadily developing

its operations and adapting flexibly to

changing circumstances when needed.

A solid financial foundation enables

continuous investment, which has made

Pintos a technological and productionefficiency

leader in its industry. At the

same time, we are strengthening our

sustainability. The goal of our investments

is also to provide an increasingly safe and

pleasant working environment. Through

investments, we also enhance the

environmental friendliness of our

operations—for example, by improving

energy efficiency.

INDUSTRIAL NAILS – SUSTAINABLY MANUFACTURED

Each year, we carry out several investments aimed at improving efficiency, enhancing

occupational safety, reducing energy consumption, and optimizing raw material usage.

In 2024, we invested in nail production at our Eura factory. As part of these improvements,

we removed outdated wire drawing machines, modernized a wire drawing line while

improving its safety, built a new control room and tool station, made layout changes to the

production facilities, enhanced dust extraction, and replaced lighting with LED fixtures.

These investments brought various improvements. The primary goal of investing in nail

quality was to secure the continuity of nail production and the preservation of jobs. At the

same time, it enabled safer work in improved conditions and the production of higherquality

products for our customers.

Thanks to the modernization, the reliability of the nail wire drawing line has increased,

making the machine more cost-effective to operate. The improved quality of the wire

allowed us to eliminate unnecessary production steps, which reduced lifting operations on

the machine and thus enhanced occupational safety.

We also focused on improving safety through enhanced dust extraction and protective

fencing. The new control room and tool station enable better quality control while also

supporting improved workplace comfort.

A NEW ENTERPRISE RESOURCE PLANNING SYSTEM

BRINGS RELIABILITY

At the heart of today’s business operations are modern information technology solutions. At

Pintos, up-to-date ICT services support both equipment investments and new service

concepts, thereby also enabling the development of work practices and methods to

become more productive and sustainable. As part of this development work, Pintos

implemented a new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system—Microsoft Business

Central—at the end of 2024. This system now serves as the foundation for all business

processes.

The renewal of the ERP system is Pintos’s largest ICT investment in the past 20 years,

both in terms of financial cost and workload. The project had been under preparation for

the past three years and culminated at the end of 2024 with a six-month deployment and

testing phase.

The new ERP system manages all business processes related to sales, production, and

procurement. With modern solutions, all company operations can be managed through a

single platform. This improves information flow, enhances knowledge work, and facilitates

the adoption of new and increasingly modern methods in the future. Thanks to this up-todate

software, Pintos will also be better equipped to respond to market changes—greater

reactivity and scalability will increase both the company's productivity and operational

reliability.

As a system that cuts across all company operations, this new investment improves

internal communication, reduces the potential for errors, increases traceability, and

enhances data security. It also makes knowledge work easier, which reduces work strain

and thereby contributes to better employee well-being.

PINTOS OY SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2024

PINTOS GENERATES BROAD ECONOMIC WELL-BEING

Pintos delivers economic prosperity not only to its own

personnel, but also to society at large. Our production

plants are located in Eura and Rauma, in the heart of

the Satakunta region. In 2024, we had a total of 120

employees at our plants, in addition to indirectly

employing a number of partners in logistics,

maintenance and information technology, for example.

We are a prominent employer in our area and, through

corporate taxation, we strengthen regional economy in

particular.

Around 87 per cent of our turnover is from sales of

reinforcements, lifting loops and industrial nails

manufactured in our own production facilities. The most

significant product group by far is reinforcement mesh

for concrete construction, for which we are the market

leader in the Nordic countries.

Even though we operate internationally, we are a local

actor deeply rooted in the Satakunta region. Our own

plants manage everything from planning and production

to sales.

Local presence is not only a matter of honour, it also

ensures that we operate sustainably: with our

production sites close by and people who are familiar

with each other, we can manage our operations in a

transparent and sustainable way.

We prefer partnerships with Finnish suppliers and

partners wherever technically and economically

feasible. However, raw materials account for by far the

largest share of procurement costs each year, and the

main raw material, wire rod, is not available in Finland.

Pintos expects that all its partners are operating

responsibly, both locally and overseas, and only

purchases raw materials from trusted, established steel

suppliers.

The challenges in the construction sector and the

stagnation of the market were also temporarily reflected

in our domestic content. While in a typical year,

domestic purchases have accounted for around 20 per

cent of all acquisitions, in 2024 the share reached 38

per cent as steel purchases decreased.

TAX FOOTPRINT BOOST SOCIETY

We support the operation of the society by paying taxes and creating jobs. We

handle tax returns and other legal obligations properly and promptly. We comply

with the current legislation in paying, collecting, accounting for and reporting taxes.

The accuracy and legality of the information are ensured through financial

management audits conducted by an independent party.

The tax footprint consists of two main areas: direct taxes paid by the company and

taxes paid by the company. Direct taxes include income tax and vehicle and

transfer taxes. Taxes paid by the company include withholding tax and VAT.

ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY


PINTOS OY SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2024

EFFICIENT OPERATION MINIMIZES

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

We at Pintos are constantly looking for new

environmentally friendly operating models and

we work towards minimizing the environmental

load. We think that when efficient, high-quality

operation is combined with well-managed

modern processes, we create impactful

changes.

Efficient use of raw materials, energy and

packaging reduces unnecessary use of natural

resources and raw material waste. High-quality

products to measure such as tailored

reinforcement components also reduce waste

for our customers. We also manage

reinforcement design for the projects, which

speeds up product installation, reduces safety

risks on the construction site, and minimizes

material waste.

Our environmental work is guided by a certified

ISO 14001 management system. The largest

share of the used raw materials is recycled and

the packaging of our products are fully

recyclable.

Pintos has taken producer sustainability for its

packaging by entering into an agreement with

producer associations managed by RINKI Oy.

In 2024, Pintos used recycled, scrap-based

steel in 96 per cent of all steel materials in its

production. The proportion has increased each

year: In 2023, the corresponding number was

95 per cent, in 2022 it was 92 per cent, in 2021

it was 91 per cent and in 2020 it was 90 per

cent.

We organize the transportation of raw materials

and ready products as efficiently as possible

and as full loads. Optimizing transportation

reduces costs and saves the nature.

RECYCLING TOWARDS A MORE

SUSTAINABLE FUTURE

At Pintos, all waste generated is either recycled or utilized for energy production, enabled by

an efficient waste management system. Approximately 93% of our waste consists of metal

scrap, which is returned to the recycling loop. Our goal is to minimize the amount of waste

and material loss at every stage of the production process.

The amount of metal scrap generated from our production is directly proportional to

production volume, which is why in 2024 we produced less scrap than in previous years. The

volume of other waste types varies annually regardless of production output, often influenced

by investment projects.

Pintos invests heavily, and new machines frequently replace older ones. When equipment is

upgraded, older hydraulic devices are often replaced with electric ones, as they are more

user friendly and environmentally friendly. Our primary objective is to extend the lifecycle of

older machines by passing them on for continued use. When production machinery has

reached the end of its lifecycle, we aim to carry out dismantling work in-house. This allows

us to ensure the efficient recycling and reuse of various machine components.

USE OF ENERGY

In 2024, the total electricity consumption in our production

operations was 6,180 MWh. Pintos transitioned to using

carbon-free electricity in 2024. The energy intensity figure,

which describes energy efficiency and is measured as

electricity consumption in kilowatt-hours per kilogram of product

manufactured, increased by 4% compared to the 2023 figure.

This rise is mainly due to a significantly reduced production

volume relative to electricity consumption, similar to the

previous year. The shift in production focus toward increasingly

customer-tailored products has also contributed to the change.

For heating our factory buildings, we use domestic bioenergy in

the form of wood chip heating.

As part of our sustainability goals, we have committed to

ensuring that all forklifts with a lifting capacity under five tons

will be electric by 2028. By the end of 2024, 52% of these

forklifts were electric. The forklifts’ fuel consumption, measured

in liters per kilogram produced, increased by 9% compared to

2023.

In our production at the Eura factory, we also utilize emission-free solar electricity

generated by Pintos’s own solar power plant. The solar plant was commissioned

in 2020 from a local partner, Paneliankosken Voima. Its average annual

production is approximately 70 MWh, which corresponds to the total yearly

electricity consumption of about four electrically heated single-family homes.

Water consumption in Pintos's production processes is very low. It consists

almost entirely of sanitary water. The cooling water used in production lines

operates in a fully closed internal circulation system.

SOCIAL SUSTAINABILITY


PINTOS OY SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2024

WE TAKE CARE OF OUR EMPLOYEES’ WELL-BEING

We support our employees’ ability to

work and overall well-being in many

ways. We promote workplace wellness

by offering benefits such as subsidized

lunch and Epassi balance for sports and

recreational activities. Pintos also

provides a free, in-house gym for all

employees to use at their convenience.

When needed, we offer support for

healthy lifestyle choices—for example,

assistance with quitting smoking.

Pintos offers its employees extended

occupational health services, as well as

accident and travel insurance that

covers leisure time. Occupational health

services are organized in accordance

with regulations and the occupational

health care action plan. In Eura and

Rauma, these services are provided by

our long-term local partner,

Lääkärikeskus Minerva, and in other

locations by Mehiläinen’s

Työelämäpalvelut.

Additional benefits offered by Pintos

include a bicycle benefit and electric

vehicle charging during the workday.

Employees also have free access to the

company-owned lakeside cabin located

on the shore of Lake Pyhäjärvi in Säkylä.

We reward our employees annually for

years of service, special milestones, and

retirement. Length-of-service recognition

begins after just three years at Pintos

and continues at regular intervals

throughout the employee’s career.

Milestone birthdays are also celebrated

when employees turn 50 and 60.

We don’t forget our employees after

retirement either. Pintos has a longstanding

tradition of hosting a dedicated

annual event for retirees, where they can

catch up with one another and hear the

latest news from the company.

PINTOS OY SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2024

A LONG-TERM EMPLOYER

We operate productively and in balance when

the personnel includes both experienced

professionals and young newcomers in the right

proportion. This allows us to combine solid

expertise with fresh knowledge.

At Pintos, long careers are common. In 2024,

29% of our employees had been with the

company for 11–20 years. Another 24% had

worked for the company for over 20 years. Of all

employment contracts, 95% were permanent.

The remaining 5% consisted of fixed-term, parttime,

or agency work. All of our employees are

covered by collective labor agreements.

We employ young people even during economic

downturns. Each year, Pintos hires several

summer workers and interns for both production

and office roles. In 2024, Pintos also supported

two thesis projects—one focused on product

safety related to CE marking for lifting loops,

and the other on improving working conditions

at production sites through better noise control.

In 2024, employee turnover was 14%, including

fixed-term contracts.

We actively participate in local recruitment

events aimed at young people to promote our

open positions. Many summer workers are

offered the opportunity to continue with us after

their fixed-term employment or internship

period. The company supports career

development and offers responsibility when the

employee’s motivation and attitude are right. In

2024, employees under 30 made up 8% of our

total workforce.

To promote an open, transparent, and safe

working culture, we implemented the Valu

whistleblowing channel in spring 2024 for

reporting suspected misconduct. The name

“Valu” comes from our values: Vastuullinen

(Sustainable), Aikaansaava (Productive),

Luotettava (Reliable), and Uudistuva

(Innovative). Whistleblowing refers to raising a

concern or reporting a suspected violation.

The purpose of the reporting channel is to

protect employees, the company, and other

internal and external stakeholders. In addition to

Pintos staff, the channel is available to

customers, suppliers, subcontractors, and other

business partners. No suspected misconduct

was reported in 2024.

CE MARKING OF LIFTING LOOPS

IMPROVES CUSTOMER SAFETY

Pintos is committed to promoting

workplace safety for its customers as well.

Our prefabricated, precisely measured

reinforcement products reduce heavy and

hazardous work phases both in precast

concrete factories and on construction

sites.

One of the most significant improvements

made last year was the CE marking of

lifting loops. Unlike our other products, a

lifting loop installed in a concrete element

or product is classified as a lifting

accessory and therefore requires CE

marking in accordance with the Machinery

Directive. The CE marking of lifting loops

serves as proof that the products comply

with the relevant requirements.

Until now, the lifting capacities of Pintos

lifting loops had been determined through

calculations and material testing. These

values have now been verified through

tensile testing directly from concrete

elements, simulating real-life usage

conditions. Nearly 150 tests were

conducted, covering a range of lifting

scenarios and use cases, such as wall

elements and concrete piles.

The testing model was developed by Riku

Kröger as part of a master’s thesis at

Tampere University, based on applicable

industry standards. Systematic testing of

the lifting capacities of loops and concrete

components began in February 2024 and

was completed in spring 2025.

With the CE marking, more

comprehensive user instructions are now

available for the lifting loops, making their

design, installation, and use easier than

before. The clear instructions provided to

precast factories, construction sites, and

designers help enhance overall customer

safety. The operational conditions and

limitations of the products have been

carefully evaluated with a safety-first

approach. The stated lifting capacities of

various loop types include high safety

factors, ensuring durability even in the

event of unexpectedly high loads during

lifting.

PINTOS OY SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2024

SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION IN ACCIDENTS

In 2024, the lost-time injury frequency (LTIF1)

was 11.0 accidents per one million working

hours. This marks a significant decrease

compared to 2023, when the LTIF was 33.0.

There were two work-related accidents in 2024

that resulted in at least one day of absence.

The decrease in these figures is the result of

continuous identification and mitigation of workrelated

risks. Employees are encouraged to

report even the smallest factors that could

compromise safety. We review all accidents,

near misses, and safety observations together

with our staff.

We also regularly monitor sick leaves and their

causes, and we have implemented an early

intervention model. The percentage of absences

due to illness and accidents dropped to 4.0% of

all working hours in 2024. Absences caused by

work-related injuries accounted for 1.8% of all

sick and accident-related absences, compared to

9.5% in 2023.

SAFER WORK THROUGH TRAINING

In 2024, our training efforts focused heavily on

improving occupational safety. A

comprehensive training program titled

"Ironclad Workplace Safety" was conducted

under the guidance of industry experts, with an

emphasis on proactive safety practices. The

training included topics such as identifying

safety deviations and understanding the

influence of psychological behavior patterns

on workplace safety. Participants also

practiced analyzing the root causes of

accidents using various methods.

The training also covered the 5S model from

the Lean system, which is designed to help

organize the work environment and

standardize working methods. The lessons

and practices from these trainings have been

implemented at both of Pintos’s production

plants. In total, 552 hours of training were

recorded in 2024—an average of 4.6 hours per

employee

Genuine, everyday interaction is part of our

working culture and is reflected in our

company values. We have improved our

meeting practices to support daily

communication, with the goal of enabling more

efficient information flow and open dialogue.

Regular development discussions also support

communication, and every Pintos employee

participates in them. In production roles, these

discussions are held at least every two years,

while for office personnel, they are conducted

more frequently.

SUPPORTING CHILDREN’S

AND YOUTH HOBBIES

Pintos actively supports local sports clubs and other organizations.

Our primary focus in sports sponsorship is children and young people.

Local clubs that do extensive youth work include Euran Raiku, Panelian

Raikas, and Euran Pallo. We have supported these clubs financially for

several years.

Pintos aims to work with these clubs to ensure that children and youth can

participate in sports regardless of their background—gaining joy and

experiences through physical activity and learning the value of teamwork.

In 2024, youth sports accounted for 56% of all the support we provided. In

total, we supported 31 different organizations.
