Reducing impact
The manufacturing industry accounts for 23% of global CO2 emissions and generates substantial waste. Regulations like CBAM impact the manufacturing sector. Socially, both industries face labour rights issues. With regulations such as the CSRD and the upcoming CSDDD, it will be crucial to address and reduce these impacts.
The pharmaceutical industry affects sustainability through high carbon emissions, with healthcare contributing 4.4% of global emissions, and drug production leading to pollution and waste.
We guide, drive and keep you informed on all industry related challenges, tailoring our service for your sector in the following:
- Double materiality
- Carbon footprint
- Sustainability strategy
- Disclosures
- CSRD preparation support
- Net-zero target setting
