Collaborative Teck
A vital part of Teck’s Sustainability Strategy is to collaborate with our neighbours, in communities where we operate, to meet our shared sustainability goals.
We are especially focused on working with Indigenous Peoples to generate local economic benefits, advance reconciliation efforts, and improve community well-being.

Future Teck
Innovations such as machine learning and Big Data are transforming Teck.
Through our RACE21™ program, we are improving the safety, sustainability and efficiency of everything we do: From streamlining maintenance of our equipment, to reducing waste by getting more out of the ore we mine.
