Outotec ranked 12th in the The Global 100 list of the world's most sustainable

mid and large cap listed companies for the Global 100 list. Of these 4,000

measuring their performance against 12 indicators.

remarked, "the Global   100 are leading a resource productivity revolution,
transforming waste into treasure and doing more with less. They are steering our
civilization away from ecological overshoot and back to a place of balance with
our planet."

index, the RobecoSAM 2013 Sustainability Yearbook as a company who achieved the
