Understanding The CERTEGO Value Chain
In January 2024, we launched a value chain analysis to assess our key impacts, risks, and opportunities. This supports our commitment to the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and drives continuous improvement across our operations.
Our focus extends beyond compliance—we actively address environmental and social impacts while identifying risks and opportunities. In 2025, we will refine our insights, enhance risk monitoring, and strengthen data analysis to maximize positive outcomes. Transparency is key, and we are committed to ongoing learning and accountability.
Key Areas in Our Value Chain
✅ Suppliers – Our largest sustainability impact lies in our supply chain. We engage closely with our top suppliers to ensure compliance with our Code of Conduct, focusing on environmental impact, ethics, and human rights.
✅ Inbound Logistics – We balance flexibility and efficiency while minimizing climate impact by optimizing deliveries and transport solutions.
✅ Our Own Operations – We integrate sustainability through circular solutions, digitalization, and responsible business practices, prioritizing: sustainable product choices, innovation & digitalization, employee well-being & diversity, efficient planning & delivery, and information security.
✅ Transport to Customers – Technician travel is a major source of GHG emissions. We optimize routes and transition to EVs, despite challenges in northern regions.
✅ Customer Solutions – We support customers in reducing their environmental impact, promoting circular solutions, and improving workplace well-being.
✅ Recycling & Reuse – We recycle packaging, refurbish products, and promote circularity to reduce emissions and material demand.
