ALIT Technologies and Agenda 2030: A Concrete Commitment to Sustainability
In the modern world, sustainability is an essential priority for companies aiming to make a positive impact on the environment and society. ALIT Technologies has embraced this mission by aligning its strategies with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a particular focus on Goal 12: Responsible Consumption and Production, especially Target 12.5, which aims to significantly reduce waste generation through prevention, reduction, recycling, and reuse.
“Reuse is Possible”: Our Philosophy
ALIT Technologies is deeply committed to promoting reuse as a fundamental principle in its operations, summarised by our motto “Reuse is Possible”. This guiding principle not only shapes our internal processes but also the solutions we offer to our customers, helping them achieve their sustainability goals.
Collaboration with Prosperah
To strengthen our commitment, we have initiated a partnership with Prosperah through the “Enterprise, Sustainability, and Territory” project. This project utilizes Purpose Mapping to identify and align corporate values with the SDGs. We have engaged stakeholders including employees, customers, suppliers, and partners to understand their priorities and integrate these perspectives into our sustainability strategy.
What is Purpose Mapping?
Purpose Mapping is a process of aligning corporate values with sustainability themes, using the internationally recognized framework of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This tool helps ALIT identify sustainable development priorities and SDG targets to measure and communicate our commitment to sustainability.

Example of Commitment: Sustainable Chemical Strippers
A tangible example of our commitment is our sustainable chemical strippers. These products are designed to remove paints and coatings without damaging the underlying material, allowing for the recovery and re-use of painted pieces. The use of sustainable strippers reduces the need to produce new components, thereby decreasing the overall environmental impact. Additionally, these products are formulated to be less toxic and safer for operators, promoting a healthier and safer work environment.
