Partnering for sustainability: A visit to Vaculug

SUEZ is committed to sustainable procurement, so a recent visit to Vaculug - a key supplier of truck tyres and retreads - offered a fascinating look at their circular innovation in action.

The Vaculug team hosted a behind-the-scenes tour of their facility, showcasing how high-quality tyres are produced from used casings. This approach not only reduces waste and emissions but also contributes to building a more circular and responsible supply chin.

The visit also included Beehive, a local community initiative supported through the tyre contract with Vaculug. This highlighted the broader impact of supplier partnerships, demonstrating how environmental goals and social value go hand-in-hand.

To mark the occasion, Vaculug presented SUEZ with a Woodland Trust Dedication Certificate, identifying where trees will be planted as part of the partnership helping us towards a greener future.

This experience reinforced the role of procurement as a driver of positive change, supporting sustainability objectives while delivering benefits for both people and the planet.

Sincere thanks to the Vaculug team for their hospitality, innovation, and shared commitment to sustainable progress.
