Sustainable technology for the entire life cycle
Smart solutions are vital to the entire mineral sector. Throughout the industry’s long history, Finland has developed sustainable technologies for all phases of mineral sector processes.
However, innovations are still needed. Companies are especially developing new circular economy solutions that save the environment and create new business opportunities. In Finland, the state, research institutes, and companies aim for a smarter economy.
The sustainability of the Finnish mining industry is supported and monitored through the international Towards Sustainable Mining (TSM) standard. The framework encourages mining companies to continuously improve environmental performance, transparency, and social responsibility across their operations.
In Finland, responsible mining tools such as social responsibility reporting and industry-wide sustainability systems have been developed in collaboration with the Sustainable Mining Network.
