We will operate climate-neutral in 2050

Sustainability

We will reduce the carbon emissions resulting from business travel by 50% in 2030 compared to 2016, relative to the number of FTEs in our organisation. 2040 will be our first year of carbon-neutral business operations  (scope 1 and 2) and 2050 will be our first year of business operations with zero CO2 emissions for scope 1, scope 2, scope 3 and (if material) other influenceable emissions (OIE). That is how we make impact with our services in the field of sustainable infrastructure. Together with our chain partners.

We design, construct and maintain sustainable infrastructure for a safe, accessible and comfortable world, taking good care of our people. We are moving towards a climate neutral, circular and inclusive way of working and producing. We aim to take a leading role in our sector, inspiring our stakeholders to act together.

Opportunities

Our sector has significant impact on the living environment as to the use of raw materials, waste, emissions and loss of biodiversity. This brings great responsibility and creates oppcortunities to make the world more sustainable. We approach CSR from the entire chain: we create tomorrow’s world together with our chain partners. All people and companies working under the responsibility of Strukton contribute to a sector that goes for safety, quality and sustainability of rail and road infrastructure.

Sustainable Development Goals

Our CSR policy is based on the five pillars People, Planet, Prosperity, Partnership and Peace. These pillars also provide the basis for the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which should lead to a better world in 2030. We have integrated the SDGs in our CSR strategy, focusing on the SDGs that best fit with our key activities and the main common CSR values of Strukton and our stakeholders. Our focus SDGs are SDG 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, 15 and 17.

Focus SDGs

Targets

We wish to belong to the top 3 best CSR performers in our sector. We have formulated five main targets, in addition to the aim to continually improve the safety and health of our working environment:

  • Our working locations (offices and projects) are free of harmful emissions and residual waste[1] in 2030
  • We design our products and projects in a circular way, re-use materials and build with circular materials in 2030
  • All our projects contribute to better soil quality and biodiversity in 2030
  • By 2040 we have our first year of carbon-neutral business operations
  • By 2050 we have our first year of business operations with zero CO2 emissions for scope 1, 2 and 3, and (if material) other influenceable emissions (OIE)
