Sustainability

In 2025, the Thiess Group sharpened its focus and strengthened momentum, driving safer, more efficient and sustainable performance as we work to set the global benchmark in mining services.

As we move forward, sustainability continues to be a key focus and strategy of the [Thiess] Group, and is integral to our ambition to be the global benchmark in mining.
