Sustainability
Karmsund Group has mapped out the overall sustainability strategy for the group, centred on the UN’s sustainable development goals and categorised under the three pillars of ESG – Environmental, Social and Governmental. Each of our subsidiaries take responsibility for their own sustainability action points and the overall goal is to reduce our carbon footprint. These plans are reviewed quarterly in each company’s respective board meetings. We believe in taking responsibility for our actions and doing what we can to make a difference in the segment we operate in.
Some of the highlights from our work with sustainability since 2022:
- We now produce approximately 700,000 kWh of green energy from solar panels
- We sort and recycle over 90% of our waste
- We use local suppliers
- First electric forklift is in operation
- Reduced energy consumption with LED lighting and heat pumps installed in our office building
- Improved security and infrastructure
- Students in practice with focus on “green” projects
- Climate reporting system implemented
