At SECAN, we do the right thing
For our employees, customers and the local and global communities in which we operate.
“ESG is integrally linked to our vision of ‘enabling our customers’ vital processes which advance a more sustainable world’, and is clearly aligned with one of our core values, ‘we do the right thing’. In short, our ESG efforts are a fundamental characteristic of our brand as well as our purpose as an organization.”
Environmental Commitment
Our Carbon footprint (baselined in 2021) is 1,000 tonnes a year. We are committed to reducing this by 50% by 2030, and to be carbon net zero by 2035.
We will achieve these targets by switching to carbon free energy, focusing on energy conservation and the introduction of more renewable energy projects.
We use the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) reporting protocol framework to capture our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions and have recently joined the Carbon Disclosure Project.(https://sciencebasedtargets.org/)
By 2030 we intend to send Zero Waste to Landfill at 50% of our company sites and by 2030 reduce water usage by 30% across our company.
The contribution of SECAN products to reduce our customers’ carbon footprint significantly outweighs our own carbon footprint.
