Tyrolit: Tooling up for compliance
with ESG data precision
With roots in the heart of the Austrian Alps, abrasive tools and services provider Tyrolit
Group combines the strengths of family values with a global vision, exporting to more
than 140 countries worldwide. One of these core values is a robust commitment to
ensuring its activities have a positive impact on people, the environment, and society.
To support this commitment, Tyrolit needed a reliable system for managing environmental,
social, and governance (ESG) data to satisfy reporting standards such as the EU’s
Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive. Grappling with different reporting systems
and manual integration, validation, and sharing of data, Tyrolit set out to standardize and
improve its ESG process. In doing so, it hoped to empower diverse employees to innovate
to help make the world a livable place for future generations.

With the SAP Sustainability Control Tower solution and SAP Business Technology
Platform, Tyrolit Group comprehensively mapped and improved a scattered and manual
sustainability process, from data collection to system integration and reporting.
By connecting the solution with SAP Cloud ERP Private offerings, the company automated
collection of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) data from SAP software and
third-party sources. SAP Business AI further automates reporting, including with
generative AI.
Dashboards in SAP Sustainability Control Tower and the SAP Analytics Cloud solution
help Tyrolit monitor ESG data, while enhanced planning tools let it measure sustainability
goals. These intuitive solutions, combined with the SAP Fiori user experience, empower
diverse teams to innovate. For instance, a dashboard that visualizes emissions data based
on employee commuting behavior has sparked emissions-savings measures. This unified
approach helps Tyrolit not only meet regulatory reporting requirements but also
continuously identify opportunities to bolster its ESG initiatives.
