Gunnebo Entrance Control has reaffirmed its commitment to sustainability, with a bold ambition to achieve net zero emissions by 2045.
Grounded in the principles of employee empowerment, ethical business practices, and environmental stewardship, Gunnebo Entrance Control is taking decisive steps to embark on a pathway or gateway to a sustainable future aligned with the ambitious targets of the Paris Agreement.
Project Earth
As part of its sustainability approach, Gunnebo AB has launched Project Earth, as a dedicated Greenhouse Gas inventory project. The desire is to ensure the global organisation participates in and aligns with its targets and the project has already completed its baseline year of 2022 calculations.
To ensure Gunnebo Entrance Control achieves its goals, a dedicated sustainability team has been established, responsible for setting, tracking, and reporting BU-level Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices and Science-Based Targets initiatives.
Addressing climate changes
"We recognise the urgency of addressing climate change and are fully committed to playing our part in safeguarding the planet for future generations," said Tina Hughan, Gunnebo Entrance Control Global Marketing and Sustainability Director.
She adds, "Our journey towards sustainability is guided by a clear vision shared across our global presence and supported by concrete actions across all aspects of our operations."
ESG initiatives
Newly appointed sustainability champions engage in many initiatives including recycling schemes
Supporting the sustainability team is a cross-departmental network tasked with conducting local-level ESG reporting and carrying out initiatives across the business contributing towards the company’s course to become an ethical and sustainable business.
Newly appointed sustainability champions engage in many initiatives including recycling schemes, such as Computers for Charity where over 3 tonnes of CO2 were saved in 2023 through donating their surplus IT equipment.
Sustainability journey
Tina Hughan said, "We firmly believe that actions speak louder than words, which is why we are committed to delivering tangible results in our journey towards sustainability."
She adds, "Our products, processes, and corporate culture are all geared towards securing a more sustainable future for Gunnebo Entrance Control and our valued customers."
