Our values in action

For decades, SUEZ has provided environmental solutions and services to government and industrial clients across Asia. Being a reliable and capable provider of environmental services, we have also extended our focus to address environmental, social and economic impact, both within and outside of our operations. By relying on our exceptional expertise and cutting-edge innovation, we protect the planet’s most valuable resources - water, soil and air.
 
In Asia, by aligning SUEZ’s sustainable development direction with the UN’s sustainable development goals (SDGs), SUEZ plays a part in all 17 SDGs at different levels and has a direct impact in 14 goals related to our business.



Our sustainable development strategy reflects our belief in the potential of environmental services providers to be enablers of sustainable development. We are convinced that there is also a clear pathway to more value creation along the route, which is why this strategy has been encoded into our planning – supporting the business development and guiding our daily operations across the region. The momentum for green transition from governments, industries and customers is strong. SUEZ, as a responsible company, has been part of this evolution by taking lead in action and expertise. We are committed to bringing positive impacts to the people, the planet and the prosperity.
