ESG

ESG stands for Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance, the three pillars of sustainability. Together, these pillars define a modern management model that places sustainability at the heart of strategic decisions, generating positive impacts for both nature and people.

Wheaton is gradually embedding the ESG framework throughout its organization—integrating it into strategic processes, governance, and risk management from the top down. This structured approach reinforces Wheaton’s commitment to sustainability, focusing on energy management, natural resource efficiency, waste reduction, and impactful social initiatives for both internal and external communities.

By prioritizing inclusive and sustainable growth, Wheaton ensures its actions benefit future generations while promoting long-term positive outcomes. The Wheaton Group integrates sustainability principles into its operations and actively works to:

  • Minimize resource consumption:
    Reduce water, energy, raw materials, and input usage to alleviate pressure on natural resources.
  • Reduce waste generation:
    Implement effective waste management practices to minimize environmental impact.
  • Treat effluents and control emissions:
    Ensure compliance with current regulations to protect ecosystems and reduce environmental impact.
  • Monitor and control atmospheric emissions:
  • Follow an annual program based on the “in-plant control” clean production concept for effective emissions management.
