STAKEHOLDER DIALOGUE
Lindab’s stakeholders primarily consist of customers, suppliers, investors,
employees and society. During the year, dialogues have been held
with representatives for these groups aimed at discussing the issues
deemed most important for the company. Based upon the exchanges in
these stakeholder dialogues, a materiality analysis has been completed
in which Lindab’s priorities have been decided. Issues that emerged as
most important relate to, for example, ethical matters such as anti-corruption
and free competition and environmental aspects such as the effect
of steel on the environment, energy-efficient products, as well as the
Group’s energy consumption and climate impact.
