- Unified sustainability management and strategic environmental, health and safety (EHS) management rolled out for the globally operating Group
- Carbon footprint calculated that covers the 18 largest entities of the SSI Schaefer Group (Scope 1 & 2 and partly Scope 3)
- Climate strategy with reduction goals developed
SSI Schaefer Group, a leading global solution provider for all areas of intralogistics, today published its second sustainability report. The report documents the company’s progress in 2022 towards a more sustainable future. Activities focused on implementing measures that were defined in the sustainability strategy developed back in 2021. The sustainability strategy takes equal account of ecological, social and economic aspects.
Despite major challenges such as the effects of the Ukraine war, the SSI Schaefer Group was able to achieve important sustainability goals last year. In addition to the development of a group-wide strategy for sustainability management, a strategic environmental, health and safety management (EHS) was introduced, among other things. Furthermore, the calculation of the carbon footprint for the 18 largest entities of the SSI Schaefer Group was carried out for Scopes 1, 2 and partly 3. Based on this analysis, a climate strategy with measurable reduction goals for the coming years was derived.
“In 2022, we continued to focus on how we, as a globally active company, can make a positive contribution in terms of sustainability,” says Steffen Bersch, CEO of the SSI Schaefer Group. “The second sustainability report underlines our ongoing commitment to a more sustainable future. It is another milestone in our efforts to live up to our responsibility towards the environment and society – and we are proud to have made such progress despite the challenges of the past year.” In 2023, the company plans to continue its efforts and take further innovative measures to achieve its sustainability goals along the entire value chain.
