Global action is being called for, aiming to create a better and more resilient future for all people, as outlined by the United Nations’ 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, at the heart of which the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are found.
At Carsoe, we believe that actively pursuing the UN SDGs can ensure a long-lasting and successful transition.
We aim to focus our efforts on the SDGs where we can achieve the greatest impact, while recognizing the significance of each goal in our collective pursuit of living sustainably on the planet.
As we embrace growth and navigate change, Carsoe remains steadfast in our commitment to conduct responsible business.
We have therefore established our Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) strategy, which serves as a roadmap, guiding us towards integrating sustainability into our core business practices.
In 2023, we have developed the fundament for the Carsoe ESG strategy for the foreseeable future: a series of sustainability targets, resting on three pillars: people, planet, and product; because we are committed to prioritizing the well-being of our people and our products’ users, safeguarding our planet, and enhancing the efficiency of our products.
Our ‘people’ targets address key aspects such as expanding workforce competencies while fostering the coming generation of specialists, as well as enhancing our products’ user safety. In 2024 we initiate our climate work by calculating our value chain emissions baseline and committing to reductions, in line with scientific guidelines.
Our 'planet' targets also include sourcing renewable energy for our global operations going forward, as well as engaging and supporting our partners and suppliers in their transition to renewable electricity use.
Finally, our `product’ targets focus on consistently decreasing resource use: energy, water, materials, etc. We aim to achieve this by boosting our equipment’s efficiency and collecting and controlling data, which serves as a fundament for productivity improvement initiatives.
At Carsoe we strive for gradually improving on product circularity, through strategic initiatives focusing on retrofitting and upgrading machinery. By promoting circularity in our after-sales services, we not only reduce waste, but through innovation and collaboration, we support our customers and partners on their transition journeys.
We have not been on our journey for long, but we have gathered that the learning curve is steep, and the path not always revealing. We are however well underway. Our ESG strategy has a strong fundament, and we intend to further develop and grow as we navigate the fast-changing ESG climate.
