Technology for Life means building for the long term

At Nedap, sustainability is not a separate agenda. It is embedded in how we think, decide, and act—today and for the future. Guided by our purpose, Technology for Life, we focus on creating lasting value for people, organizations, and the world around us.

We believe positive impact follows naturally from executing our strategy well. That means taking responsibility for our footprint across the value chain and making sustainability part of everyday business.

Tomorrow in Motion

In 2025, we introduced Tomorrow in Motion: our sustainability story and guiding framework. It reflects our belief that sustainability is inherent to creating Technology for Life—and to how we work with customers, partners, and each other.

Technology for a changing world

We develop technology that helps customers adapt to a changing world. By combining domain knowledge with technological expertise, we create solutions that deliver value today and remain relevant tomorrow. Our technology helps customers do more with less—reducing waste, emissions, and inefficiencies across their operations.

Sustainable by default

We design products with sustainability built in from the start. From material choices to end of life, we focus on long-lasting, energy-efficient solutions that are easier to maintain, repair, and upgrade. By designing products that grow with our customers, we reduce environmental impact while extending product lifecycles.

Sustainable operations

We also take responsibility for our own footprint. We are working toward net-zero emissions in our operations by 2030, focusing on electrification, renewable energy, and improved energy efficiency across our offices and production facilities.

Sustainability report

We’ve published our first sustainability report — a milestone in sharing how we translate our ambitions into action. The report covers our goals, progress and key choices across our operations, products and value chain.

It includes our roadmap for reducing emissions, our commitment to the Science Based Targets initiative, and how we’ve prepared for CSRD reporting. The report also highlights the role of design, data and collaboration in creating impact.

Science-based targets

We are committed to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to ensure our climate actions align with global science. Our near-term emission reduction targets have been formally validated by the SBTi. We aim to reduce absolute greenhouse gas emissions from our direct operations (scope 1 and 2) by 95% by 2030, compared to a 2020 base year. In addition, we commit to reducing greenhouse gas emissions from purchased goods and services and the use of our sold products (scope 3) by 51.6% per euro value added within the same timeframe.
