Uses circular services for robots

KUKA says it reuses robots and parts when products reach the end of their first life cycle. It offers recycling and reconditioning, which means restoring used robots so they can be used again. The company also runs a platform called KUKA | Circle where customers can buy and sell used robots. This is meant to slow the use of raw materials, reduce waste, and lower emissions linked to making new equipment.

Reports on ESG topics

KUKA says it has carried out a materiality analysis, which is a process for finding the ESG topics that matter most to the business and its stakeholders. It says the analysis follows the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive and the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), which are rules for how companies should report sustainability data. The company says the main topics include climate change, circular economy, its own workforce, workers in the value chain, corporate policy, and customers and end users.

Improves supply chain oversight

KUKA says suppliers can strongly affect its sustainability performance, so it uses sustainability criteria in supply chain management. It says it shares quality and responsibility expectations with suppliers and gives monitoring tasks to business units and regions. In related material, the company also said its Swisslog business uses IntegrityNext, an online platform for supplier and risk management. This is meant to help track ESG issues in the supply chain and respond earlier if legal requirements change.

Uses automation for resource savings

KUKA says its robots and automation systems can help customers use less energy, waste fewer materials, and reduce environmental impact. It gives examples such as electric vehicle production, logistics, recycling of consumer electronics, and food handling. The company also says precise robot systems can improve occupational safety and support healthcare logistics and patient care. These examples show how it links automation with both environmental and social benefits.
