​
To keep our world healthy, fertile and liveable, Den Ouden Groep has set itself the goal of reducing CO2 emissions by 4% per year up to and including 2026. We achieve this by, among other things:

Processing green residual flows into high-quality products such as biomass and soil improvers;
Taking on sustainable projects, such as the cradle-to-cradle 'Rotonde van Morgen' in Venlo;
Making the purchasing policy more sustainable, such as electric or hybrid alternatives for the equipment.
Making our buildings more sustainable, such as installing solar panels, new more efficient heating systems and insulation for our head office and the weighbridge buildings.
Weekly monitoring of the fuel consumption of the vehicle and machinery;
Participation in regional and national CO2 reduction initiatives, such as the Helmonds Energie Community (HEC): and Netherlands CO2 Neutral.
Den Ouden Groep is certified at the highest level of the CO2 performance ladder. This means that we not only continuously improve within the company in the field of CO2 reduction, but also exert influence outside our own chain.

Den Ouden Groep communicates structurally internally and externally about its own CO2 footprint and reduction targets. These can also be found on the SKAO website.
