Seamless cooperation in processes that intersect various functions is key in our organisation’s performance.

Responsibility guides our operations and the development of PONSSE forest machines. Our strategic responsibility goals are:

We improve the wellbeing of our people
Ponsse is an equal and non-discriminating working community, in which everyone can work safely. We appreciate one another and take good care of each other, and our customers and network. Our machines are safe and ergonomic for their users.

• We innovate sustainable solutions that respect nature
Our product and service solutions enable sustainable forestry. We bear responsibility for the machine life cycle and extend it through excellent maintenance services. We develop solutions that promote the circular economy and reduce the environmental impacts of machines.

• We develop our operations while respecting nature
We know the environmental impacts of our operations and work systematically to improve them. In our operations, we seek carbon neutrality and material efficiency.

• We are a reliable partner who values community
Honesty, ethics, and communality are at the core of the Ponsse spirit. Good corporate governance and our Code of Conduct steer us to treat people equally, conduct sustainable business and engage in confidential cooperation. Working as a community is important to us wherever we operate.
