Faber Group Sustainability Report
Sustainability is embedded in the core of our circular load carrier pooling business and in our hearts! With the Faber Group Sustainability Report, we now make our efforts and ambitions tangible and visible. The report outlines our Faber Group sustainability strategy and Faber Development Goals. It also includes the result of a baseline measurement of our footprint as Faber Group as a whole, per division and per type of activity. We used this to set tangible KPI’s to eventually become a ‘net-zero’ company by 2045.
Peak & Plateau
Our sustainability approach covers the full scope of care for people, planet and society – which has been recognized with a Platinum Ecovadis rating continuously since 2021. This we consider the basis (Plateau) of our sustainability ambitions.
However, we want to do more where we can have most impact (Peak). We have assessed the footprint of our business and found that approximately 85% origins from our (purchased) load carriers and transportation.
We're creating a better world through our circular business model, facilitated by continously improving our sustainable value chain. The 7 impact areas visually summarizes this.
Some concrete examples of sustainability initiatives in our divisions
We have distributed the overall sustainability goals over the divisions of Faber Group: IPP, PRS, PAKi, vPOOL and SATIM. Each division has created its own sustainability plan to contribute with concrete projects and actions to the overall group target with focus on the impact areas mentioned before. We also established a Sustainability Community with a lead in each division to boost sustainability initiatives, to align and share best practices with the other divisions and our group Sustainability management.
