Faber Group Sustainability Report
Sustainability is embedded in the core of our circular load carrier pooling business and in our hearts! With the Faber Group Sustainability Report, we now make our efforts and ambitions tangible and visible. The report outlines our Faber Group sustainability strategy and Faber Development Goals. It also includes the result of a baseline measurement of our footprint as Faber Group as a whole, per division and per type of activity. We used this to set tangible KPI’s to eventually become a ‘net-zero’ company by 2045.
Our sources
Sustainability is one of our main concerns when sourcing timber for our customers at home and abroad. Luckily, sustainable timber is becoming more readily available. Satim exclusively deals with completely trusted, environmentally aware growers of wood.
We procure timber from, among others, Scandinavia, Germany, Belgium, France, Poland and the Baltics.
Peak & Plateau
Our sustainability approach covers the full scope of care for people, planet and society – which has been recognized with a Platinum Ecovadis rating three years in a row. This we consider the basis (Plateau) of our sustainability ambitions.
However, we want to do more where we can have most impact (Peak). We have assessed the footprint of our business and found that approximately 85% origins from our (purchased) load carriers and transportation.
We're creating a better world through our circular business model, facilitated by continously improving our sustainable value chain. The 7 impact areas visually summarizes this.
