Dynapac

At Dynapac, our commitment towards sustainability is integral to our strategy & success. In order to deepen employees' understanding of sustainability in the modern context and its significance at Dynapac, we successfully launched a comprehensive sustainability training program across the entire division. Since rollout after the summer, over 1200 of Dynapac employees worldwide have participated.

Training covers key topics such as environmental, social, and economic sustainability, global challenges, and the urgent issue of climate change. To ensure broad understanding, the training is delivered in both English and relevant local languages.

Aligned with Dynapac's commitment to reducing its environmental impact, the training emphasizes the company’s 2030 sustainability goals and KPIs. By fostering awareness and dialogue on these goals, Dynapac encourages employees to take measurable actions towards a more sustainable future.

Dynapac in Pune (India) successfully completed the installation of a 200 kWp rooftop solar power system at Plant 1. This project marks a key initiative in the company’s commitment to sustainability by significantly reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions.

It is expected to reduce purchased electricity by 264 MWh yearly. This also result in a yearly reduction of 262 tons of CO2 emissions, corresponding to 2.36 tons per employee. Covering 34% of all electricity consumption it substantially reduces the plant's reliance on grid power.

The solar panel installation on workshop roofs at the production site in Karlskrona (Sweden) is a strategic step towards reducing electricity consumption, decrease reliance on the grid, and support commitment to sustainability. The newly installed solar power system enables the site to self-generate and consume electricity, resulting in a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.

With the project now fully operational, the site is set to see a 14% reduction in annual electricity costs, translating to an annual savings of around €90,000. By reducing exposure to the grid, the site will also play a part in advancing sustainability efforts, decreasing its carbon footprint and contributing to a greener future.

This project represents a key milestone in Dynapac’s ongoing efforts to integrate renewable energy solutions across its operations. This investment will not only deliver financial benefits but also contribute to Dynapac’s long-term goals of sustainability and energy efficiency.

On World Environment Day, June 5th, 2024, Dynapac in Pune (India) completed its Green Belt Development initiative by planting 200 trees near its production site in Fulgaon. The event saw active participation from employees and the local community, reflecting the company’s commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship.

This initiative will contribute to reducing carbon emissions by capturing approximately 4.1 tons of CO2 equivalent per year. This initiative also enhances the local ecosystem, improves air quality, and aligns with Dynapac’s broader environmental goals.

By engaging employees and the local community, Dynapac’s production site in Pune demonstrates its commitment to corporate social responsibility and strengthens its relationship with the local community. Dynapac Pune also aims to earn carbon credits from the state pollution board reinforcing its commitment to long-term sustainability and environmental governance.

Dynapac was the first manufacturer in the world to introduce electric rollers and pavers. Since 2023, the Z.ERA program at Dynapac is helping accelerate our continual push towards an emission-free workplace. This can be seen in the investment and further refinement of alternative fuels such as battery-driven engines and hydrogen power solutions.

The initial phase of the program focused on offering a product portfolio that is optimally suited for inner-city environment applications such as smaller road assignments like bicycle lanes and repair works. Among the many benefits of alternative energy-powered pavers compared to their diesel-powered counterparts are a lower carbon footprint, more savings from lower operating costs, and less wear and tear from fewer fluids and moving parts. Additionally, operator comfort is heightened with lower noise levels and no exhaust fumes.

As a company committed to innovation and fostering beneficial change, we are helping play an important role in the transition to an emission-free future. Our Z.ERA program will assist in leading the way with its first focus on inner-city work sites.

Today, this innovative portfolio includes an Electric Citypaver SD1800W e and Electric double drum asphalt rollers CC900 e/ CC1000 e and several electric-driven solutions for light compaction applications.
