Making a difference
Here at Sonardyne, we are committed to ‘doing the right thing’ across our business and that includes making a difference to our community now and for future generations. Some of the ways we are doing this is through our goal of being carbon neutral by 2025, the creation of the Sonardyne Foundation and our work with The Shark Trust.
The Sonardyne Foundation allows us to offer financial and practical support to students who study, or are planning to study, an engineering degree. Read more here
Being involved in The Shark Trust means we can help drive change in fishing legislation and in the protection of the declining population of sharks and rays. To find out more about what we are doing, read here.
