Building a sustainable future — together

Oliver Cordt

CEO

In today’s world, sustainability is already a core value, a responsibility, and a strategic imperative. At first glance, it might seem that sustainability stands in contrast to business goals like growth, efficiency, and profitability. But is that really the case?

The answer lies in perspective.

In the short term, sustainable development can appear challenging—requiring time, dedication, and significant resources. It’s a journey of transformation, not a quick fix. However, when viewed through a long-term lens, sustainability becomes a powerful enabler of enduring success. It strengthens—not weakens—traditional business values. It fosters innovation, secures future resources, and builds lasting trust with stakeholders.

  • Because without people, there is no enterprise.
  • Because without a livable planet, there is no purpose.
  • Because without a vision for the future, there is nothing to strive for.

At Trocellen Group, we have always believed that responsible business is sustainable business. Guided by the forward-thinking philosophy of our Japanese parent company, Furukawa Electric, we are committed to long-term value creation that respects both people and the planet.

We are inspired by the timeless definition from the Brundtland Commission:

Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

This principle is more relevant today than ever, in the face of climate change, finite resources, and global inequality. In this complex landscape, corporate sustainability is not an option—it’s a necessity.

Our Commitment in Action

To turn vision into impact, we’ve embedded sustainability into every aspect of our operations:

  • Designing for circularity: We have adopted ecodesign principles to ensure our products support circular economies, minimizing waste and maximizing resource efficiency.
  • Innovating responsibly: Our R&D teams focus on developing solutions and technologies that enhance environmental performance and reduce ecological footprints.
  • Empowering people: We are reshaping our organizational processes to promote the wellbeing, inclusion, and success of our colleagues, partners, and communities.
  • Measuring progress transparently: We track our sustainability efforts using the latest methodologies and monitor our progress regularly.

Sustainability begins with individual commitment—but its true strength lies in collective effort. We thank our employees, partners, and stakeholders for their ongoing support. Together, we are paving the way for a future where opportunity, innovation, and responsibility go hand in hand.

 

Let’s build that future — today.
