Our Sustainability Focus
Over the years, CCG has long been at the forefront of sustainability within the industry. From setting ambitious carbon targets, to investing in green buildings and reducing resource consumption across our operations, sustainability has been embedded in our core values.
To continue this journey and position CCG for long-term growth, we are refining our sustainability strategy in response to emerging global megatrends such as climate change, ageing population and sustainable value chain. These forces of change will shape the future of our industry and present both risks and opportunities that we must proactively address.
The refined Sustainability Focus evolves from our previous strategy. It redefines our priorities and commitments based on a comprehensive assessment of material sustainability topics, taking into account changes in our Group structure and evolving corporate strategy. The refined Sustainability Focus integrates our corporate strategy, ensuring we deliver business success while acting responsibly and creating positive outcomes for the environment and our communities.
Our Sustainability Focus is built on four strategic pillars, all anchored by two core foundations: innovation and technology, and strong governance. Together, these elements empower CCG to drive a comprehensive and forward-looking approach to sustainability.
