Sustainability & social responsibility
Yep, we care – and we do something about it
At Straatman, we build durable products but we also believe in building a better world. For us, sustainability is not just a checkbox or a trendy buzzword. It is common sense. We work smart, waste less, and think about tomorrow, not just today.
We are not perfect, but every day we try to make choices that are better for people, the planet, and our team.
Our view on sustainability
We are in the business of heavy-duty maritime solutions, but that doesn’t mean we have a heavy footprint. We believe smart engineering can go hand in hand with caring for the environment. That is why we are always looking for ways to innovate. Not just in our products but also in how we operate as a company.
What we do (and not just talk about):
- We power up, sustainably
Our machines are efficient, and so is our mindset. We have placed solar panels on our headquarters roof so our office runs on green power. And our company cars? Many are already electric! - We don’t like waste
Waste separation? Check. Recycling? Check. Constantly finding ways to reduce leftovers in our production? Double check. Because throwing stuff away that could’ve been reused? Nah. - We use our brains, not just raw materials
We are smart with our resources. That means using sustainable materials where we can, and only taking what we need. - We look out for our people
Safety and health come first. Always. Our HSE advisor keeps a sharp eye on workplace safety, and we check our risk plans every year to stay on top of things. No nonsense, just care. - We learn. We improve. We repeat.
Every person at Straatman gets the chance to learn how we can do better, for the environment, for each other, and for the next generation of engineers.
More than machines: our social side
We are part of a community and we like to give back.
- We support local sports clubs, museums, and foundations. Because we love teams, creativity, and doing good.
- We work with schools and training programs to help future talent find their spark.
- We make space for everyone. A safe, welcoming workplace where you can grow.
How we stay on track
- Our safety and environmental policies get updated every year.
- We have a real, human HSE advisor (not a poster on the wall).
- We are open about what we do. With our team, our clients, and everyone who wants to know.
Always improving
We believe sustainability is a journey, not a destination. If you have got ideas, feedback, or just want to chat about what we do: Just get in touch. Let’s work better, together!
