About the Sustainability Report

The Swedish Annual Accounts Act has been updated and, as of 2018, larger companies in Sweden are required to submit a sustainability report containing non-financial information on issues concerning the environment, people, social conditions, respect for human rights, and anti-corruption practices. This requirement is based on EU Directive 2014/95/EU.

Flir Systems AB is regarded as a larger company in this respect and must therefore provide an annual report. We have chosen to publish the sustainability report as a separate document. Many activities are under way in all the areas listed, sometimes a little overshadowed by other initiatives in the company; however, we are delighted and proud to have this opportunity to showcase what we are doing.

We Make a Difference

At Flir Systems AB we develop IR technology and thermal cameras that improve—and even save—people’s lives. By far the greatest (positive) impact of our operations on the environment comes from the environmental improvements that are made possible by our products. Our cameras can be used, for example, to detect heat losses and energy leakage, or to detect leaks of greenhouse gases. And at our own site in Täby we strive for sustainability both in terms of the environment and by providing our employees a sustainable workplace. Learn more at www.flir.com.

Swedish law on annual financial reporting (1995:1554) has been updated (SFS 2022:1216) with additional requirements on sustainability reporting based on EU Taxonomy (Regulation EU 2020/852). Flir Systems AB has no activities in scope of the reporting requirements from EU Taxonomy, as they are described in the regulation.

Some of our customers may contribute substantially to one or more of the environmental objectives listed in the regulation when using our products, but design and manufacturing of the products do not qualify as such
