Nilfisk Featured in Vision 2045, showcasing its work with the UN Sustainable Development Goals
A Century of Innovation and Responsibility: Creating a Cleaner Future Since 1906
Founded in 1906, Nilfisk has continually changed and redefined the ways of cleaning by developing solutions that foster safe and healthy environments. Nilfisk’s legacy began with the launch of Europe's first electric vacuum cleaner and has since expanded to providing cutting-edge cleaning products and services across more than 100 countries. The company’s mission is to enhance the quality of life for millions by delivering solutions that are both effective and environmentally responsible.
A Commitment to Sustainability
Sustainability is at the heart of Nilfisk. The company has a rich history of producing durable and efficient products, integrating advanced technology and smart thinking to minimize negative impacts that the products have on the environment and those who interact with them.
Nilfisk was among the first in the cleaning industry to adopt science-based climate action goals through the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company’s focus on sustainability is reflected in the focus on five SDGs, striving to provide clear and trustworthy environmental, social, and governance (ESG) data to customers and suppliers. By promoting transparency and comparability, Nilfisk facilitates better decision-making and fosters industry-wide improvements in sustainability.
Driving Lasting Change Through Product Innovation
Earlier this year Nilfisk launched the first in a portfolio of new products building on sustainable principles. The floorcare solution, SC550, is a testament to a new sustainable design strategy. The SC550 is 28% more energy efficient and uses up to 40% less water and 60% less detergent than its comparable predecessors. These savings are based on internal research and R&D calculations and this product exemplifies Nilfisk’s dedication to creating solutions that balance efficiency and environmental stewardship.
Looking ahead, Nilfisk has set ambitious targets to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. By 2030, Nilfisk aims to achieve a 35% reduction in absolute scopes 1 and 2 emissions, and a 48% reduction in emission intensity in scope 3. Nilfisk calls for industry-wide collaboration to enhance transparency in sustainability claims, emphasizing the collective responsibility to provide customers with clear, comparable information.
