Demonstrating our commitment to building a more sustainable future
We are delighted to announce that Sertec has achieved an 88% score in the latest NQC Carbon Footprint Assessment, a significant milestone that reflects the progress being made across the business to embed sustainability into our operations, culture and day-to-day decision-making.
This achievement provides independent recognition of the work taking place across our sites and reinforces our commitment to responsible business practices, continuous improvement and long-term sustainability.
What is the NQC Carbon Footprint Assessment ?
NQC is a widely recognised supplier assurance and compliance platform used by major organisations and OEMs to assess suppliers against key Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) requirements.
The assessment reviews a broad range of sustainability-related topics, including:
- Environmental management and carbon reduction
- Energy and resource efficiency
- Sustainable procurement practices
- Social responsibility and employee wellbeing
- Governance, ethics and compliance
- Sustainability objectives, reporting and continuous improvement
The audit enables organisations to demonstrate their sustainability credentials while providing customers and stakeholders with confidence that robust policies, processes and controls are in place.
Achieving an 88% score is a strong result and reflects the collective effort being made across Sertec to strengthen our sustainability performance.
The outcome demonstrates that we have established effective processes, clear objectives and tangible evidence of activity across multiple areas of the business. It also provides valuable external validation that Sertec is making meaningful progress on its sustainability journey.
As customer expectations, industry standards and regulatory requirements continue to evolve, maintaining strong sustainability performance is increasingly important to remaining competitive within the automotive and manufacturing sectors.
A Team Effort
This achievement has been made possible through the dedication and collaboration of teams across the business. From energy reduction initiatives and environmental management activities to governance improvements and employee engagement programmes, every contribution has helped strengthen our overall performance.
Looking Ahead
While we are proud of this result, we recognise that sustainability is an ongoing journey rather than a destination.
The audit has highlighted opportunities for further development, helping us identify where we can continue to strengthen our approach and deliver even greater impact in the future.
As we move forward, Sertec remains committed to reducing our environmental footprint, supporting our people and communities, and ensuring sustainability remains a key part of how we operate and grow.
Together, we are building a stronger, more sustainable future for our business, our customers and the communities in which we operate.
