Governance and ESG Management
Ethical governance at Tenova starts with the highest governance bodies. Their leadership and dedication to transparency shapes the Group’s decisions, strengthening stakeholder trust.
Stakeholder Engagement
We believe that strong governance is built not only on well-defined structures and procedures, but also guided by a clear purpose and the capacity to actively listen to, engage with, and respond to the expectations of our stakeholders. Thus, a constant and solid relationship with all stakeholders is fundamental for the Group, aiming at creating shared value.
Compliance and Ethics
Ethical conduct is a key component of our success, both as a Group operating in the metals and mining industries, and as people part of a thriving company.
Our Supply Chain
We operate on a global scale, with an international supply chain spanning across five continents. We ensure full compliance with procurement regulations in all countries where we operate or conduct business and expect our suppliers and partners to adhere to all applicable laws and regulations. Our operations are global but at the same time we are strongly focused on the impact we generate locally. Thus, in 2025, 60% of our purchases were sourced locally1, namely within the same country where our legal entities operate, preferring local contractors and suppliers.
1 The reported percentage does not include the legal entity LOI Poland Spolka z.o.o., as the purchasing data were not yet fully integrated into the management system, which has caused difficulties in retrieving the relevant information.
