Our purpose of bringing quality, safety and sustainability to life means that we are a force for good in society.

A purpose-led company

Sustainability is the movement of our time and central to everything we do at Intertek, anchored in our purpose, our vision, our values and our strategy. For us, sustainability excellence means much more than achieving net zero.  

Our Sustainability Excellence strategy

Our Sustainability Excellence strategy is fundamental to our business. We ensure that we create positive impacts through the work we do for our clients, and we make progress on our own sustainability agenda by engaging our colleagues in our ever better journey.

We do this through implementing detailed site-by-site action plans, accurate sustainability performance measurement and strong governance. We hold ourselves to account in line with our own TSA Corporate Sustainability standards, international best practice, the expectations of our stakeholders and future regulations.
