Sustainability
SUSTAINABLE PCBs DO NOT FLY

At AKA PCB, sustainability is a long-term commitment to responsible environmental management, people, and resources. Through continuous investments in energy efficiency, renewable energy, and advanced technologies, we systematically reduce our environmental footprint while ensuring reliable, high-quality PCB production.

Environmental sustainability

In last 5 years, AKA PCB invested in environmental sustainability.

Key results:

  • approximately 27% reduction in energy consumption (≈ 320 MWh/year),
  • 122 tons of CO₂ emissions reduced annually,
  • increased energy efficiency and supply reliability.

Key measures:

  • waste heat recovery for space heating,
  • own transformer station to reduce losses on low voltage line,
  • energy management system (IBM E‑Power),
  • use of geothermal water for Technological cooling and heating,
  • on-site solar power plant,
  • transition to LED lighting
Digital Transformation

AKA PCB is implementing a Digital Transformation project. The initiative modernizes business and production processes through AI, machine learning, and advanced digital technologies.

Key actions include:

  • AI-driven order automation integrated with our ERP system
  • MES system for real-time production monitoring
  • Digital twin technology for optimized production planning
  • Digitization of technical documentation and automated CO₂ footprint calculation
  • Upgraded IT infrastructure and cybersecurity improvements
  • Employee training to strengthen digital skills

By leveraging these digital solutions, we improve efficiency, traceability, and security, while directly supporting our sustainability goals—reducing energy consumption, optimizing resources, and minimizing our environmental footprint.

Circular economy and waste management

Responsible material and waste management is implemented as part of our environmental management system in accordance with ISO 14001. An important element of our environmental strategy is the gradual integration of circular economy principles and efficient resource use.

Our activities focus on:

  • reducing waste generation through optimized production processes,
  • systematic waste separation and recycling in line with legal requirements and best practices,
  • reuse of materials wherever technically and safely feasible,
  • the use of sustainable and compliant materials and cooperation with suppliers who meet environmental and social standards.

By applying these principles across our supply chain, we reduce environmental impact and promote efficient resource use.

Social responsibility

Our operations are guided by the principles set out in the Code of Conduct and internationally recognized human rights standards. We are committed to providing a safe, inclusive, and respectful working environment.

This includes:

  • zero tolerance for discrimination, harassment, child or forced labor,
  • fair and lawful working conditions,
  • protection of employee health and safety,
  • responsible handling of personal data and privacy.

The same standards are required throughout our supply chain.

Responsible governance and supply chain

Sustainable business is based on legal compliance, ethical conduct, and transparency.

We are committed to:

  • zero tolerance for corruption and unethical practices,
  • responsible corporate governance,
  • a sustainable, transparent, and compliant supply chain,
  • ensuring process quality and reliability in accordance with ISO 9001.

Material selection and supplier cooperation are carried out in full compliance with applicable product and chemical regulations, including REACH and RoHS, ensuring safe, traceable, and legally compliant materials throughout the supply chain.

Monitoring and continuous improvement

We regularly monitor energy use, emissions, and environmental impacts using measurable indicators. Our environmental management system is implemented in line with ISO 14001, ensuring transparency and continuous improvement.

At AKA PCB, sustainability is a continuous process and a core part of our long-term strategy.
