Sustainability
Sustainability permeates everything we do
Corteco considers sustainability to be one of its key focus areas. Sustainability covers everything from helping our customers reduce their energy consumption to our own choices regarding procurement, recycling and the requirements we place on suppliers, as well as our role as an employer.
Thinking for the long-term in the broadest sense
Being climate-smart on the building site
We take responsibility throughout the entire renovation process. This means choosing the materials with great care, managing all waste in an environmentally sound and climate-smart way, and setting equally high standards for our suppliers. The most environmentally friendly option is always to retain the existing solution, so we prefer to renovate and preserve rather than demolish and build anew.
Lower energy costs for our customers
By optimising and renovating property exteriors, we help our clients to significantly reduce their energy consumption. This reduces the carbon footprint and frees up financial resources that can be invested directly in the organisation’s productivity and competitiveness.
A workplace where people can grow
Our greatest asset is our employees. We work actively to be an attractive employer where values such as care, respect, openness, equality, and diversity form the foundation. Through continuous improvement, we create a safe, healthy and stimulating working environment – with methods, systems and procedures that support, develop and inspire our teams.
We have chosen to focus on five of the UN’s global goals
5. Gender equality
8. Working conditions and economic growth
12. Sustainable consumption and production
13. Combating climate change
