Building a better tomorrow - our ESG Report 2023 is out! 🌎
Today, with the publication of our ESG report and financial status, I would like to thank you, Xella Group teams and our partners. 2023 was a year of challenges and achievements. The construction industry faced unprecedented difficulties. While we took measures to ensure the resilience of the business in this situation, we did not deviate from our strategic commitments and the sustainability goals we set ourselves.
Let me give you a few examples:
✅ Safety First: we made safety a core value for Xella, and we have continued to embed a culture of mutual accountability in one another and to invest substantially in our Total Safety Leadership program, which shows positive results as accidents dropped by 36 percent.
✅ We have developed a suite of innovative Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools that have significantly advanced our goals of delivering efficiency, affordability and sustainability in the market. Through these digital solutions, our teams share information with clients that reduces waste in the construction process, saves time, labor and costs, and improves onsite safety.
✅ Ambitious Targets: as a major milestone in 2023, our targets to reduce scope 1, 2 and 3 CO2 emissions have been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative. We aim to reduce scope 1 and 2 CO2 emissions by 42 percent, and established a roadmap for the reduction of our scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services by 25 percent by 2030.
✅ Zero leftovers to landfill by 2030: we are committed to avoiding autoclaved aerated concrete and calcium silicate leftovers in landfills and are developing new recyclable products.
✅ Innovation as a key: Our Xella Technologie- und Forschungsgesellschaft mbH is crucial for achieving our sustainability goals in its role as a lynchpin and guardian of the integrity of our products and processes.
I invite you to deepdive our progress and plans in our ESG report
