Social responsibility

As was the tradition at John Nurminen Oy, Nurminen Logistics Plc is also doing its share for Finland's environment and cultural heritage by supporting the John Nurminen Foundation.

John Nurminen Foundation’s Clean Baltic Sea project aims to accelerate the chemical removal of phosphorus in St Petersburg. Modernisation of the city's largest wastewater treatment plant was completed on 1 October 2007 with the introduction of an efficient phosphorus removal method. The plant purifies about half of St Petersburg's wastewaters. The new more efficient purification method cuts the phosphorus load in the Baltic Sea by about 300 tonnes a year, which is 5–8% of the entire load. In the next phase – by March according to plans – phosphorus removal will be stepped up further, reducing the load by an additional 260 tonnes a year.
