We’re an active player in the world of green buildings. On a global level, we’re a member of the WGBC’s Corporate Advisory Board (CAB). We’re also a member of various local Green Building Councils (GBCs), for example in South East Asia and the Middle East.

As a Together for Sustainability (TfS) member, we contribute to its development, growth and success, for example by actively participating in workstreams and decision-making bodies. We’ve been part of the third party audit workstream for many years and now contribute to the new greenhouse gas Scope 3 workstream, where we use the leverage of the industry initiative to create awareness and reach suppliers on a larger scale.

We’re part of a broad coalition of Dutch companies to continue focusing on sustainability while using the UN SDGs as a guiding compass to define and measure our efforts. This will not only help us to mitigate climate risks, but will also enable us to create a more resilient economy and a more inclusive society. We endorse a strong focus on sustainability – such as the EU Green Deal – as one of the cornerstones of the COVID-19 recovery plan, while continuing to provide long-term certainty regarding the Dutch climate agreement and measurable commitments.
