Corporate Social Responsibility by Tyro Remotes

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) means that you as a company takes responsibility for the impact of your business on the people, the society and the environment. These are the activities that are a step beyond the required laws. These are achieved through social engagement and a forward-looking vision.

Therefore, Tyro Remotes not only strives to a higher operating efficiency in all business decisions but we try to exploit all the opportunities that can limit the impact of our operations on the environment and can increase the welfare of our employees and the society.

We focus on the areas where our impact is the greatest and where possible, we also work together with suppliers and partners. Besides that Tyro Remotes tries to find a balance between the well-known 3 P’s: People, Planet and Profit.
