Five years of successful climate work

We have been actively working on mitigating climate change for five years, which has led to significant decrease in emissions for Climecon. From the first calculation, conducted in 2019, emissions have decreased by as much as 45%, which is equivalent to 1,730 tons of carbon dioxide. This amount is equivalent to driving 12.4 million kilometres by car, or almost three thousand people making a round trip from Helsinki to Munich each year. We publish our carbon footprint for the previous year and a summary of the highlights of our sustainability work annually.

Climecon has been awarded EcoVadis bronze medal in recognition of sustainability efforts

Climecon has been awarded the bronze medal of the EcoVadis responsibility rating system. EcoVadis evaluates 21 sustainable development criteria in four categories: environment, labor and human rights, ethical business principles and responsible procurement. We are ranked in the top 25 % and got excellent points regarding environmental responsibility. EcoVadis is the world’s largest and most trusted supplier of business responsibility ratings.

The Science Based Targets initiative approved Climecon’s climate targets

Climecon joins the Science Based Targets initiative and commits to emission reduction targets to mitigate climate change. The most responsible and climate-wise companies have set a public goal that is in line with the Paris Climate Agreement. Climecon is one of the first construction product manufacturing companies to have approved a climate target through the Science Based Targets initiative, shortly SBTi.

Climecon’s emissions have decreased by 40% – or not?

This would make a good clickbait headline, but we want to tell you the truth. We have now calculated the environmental emissions of 2023. For several years, Climecon has been working actively to reduce the climate and environmental impacts caused by business operations.
