How energy efficiency can ensure energy security
European leaders must focus on putting energy efficiency at the heart of policies to ensure the future-proof energy security that Europe needs.
12.07.2022Our new strategy is defined by clear concrete targets for 2025.
We are proud to announce the launch of our new sustainability strategy for Knauf Insulation — For A Better World.
The exciting new strategy reveals our ambitions for the future and focuses on four key sustainable goals:
Putting People First | Achieving Zero Carbon | Delivering A Circular Economy | Creating Better Buildings |
Vincent Briard, our Director of Sustainability, said: “It is vital, in the short term, that we provide a measurable milestone of success and ensure the current leadership is held accountable for progressing towards our long-term vision to avoid leaving the problem to the next generation.”
We are also here to help. We are supporting our customers as they navigate market forces and regulatory landscapes that are increasingly demanding more sustainable building solutions.
“Sustainability defines everything we do. Our products save energy, cut emissions and make buildings fit for the future. We have the experience and expertise to ensure all our customers achieve their sustainable ambitions.”
The strategy builds on our sustainability successes of the past decade. From 2010 to 2019 we have cut our energy consumption and emissions by 23%; reduced our Lost Time Accident rate by 56% and cut our landfill waste by 67%.
