Circular enterprise
At NS, we are working hard towards a sustainable future. Our goal is to purchase circularly by 2030, maximise the (re)use of materials, and create no waste in our offices, depots and trains. We base this on three principles: use as few new raw materials as possible, make materials as useful as possible, and ensure that waste does not exist.
