ESG-præsentationer og medlemsskaber

DGNB Premium Medlem

Som den første producent af betonelementer i Danmark er CRH Concrete premium-medlem af Rådet for Bæredygtigt Byggeri. Rådet for Bæredygtigt Byggeri er en non-profit medlemsorganisation sat i verden for at fremme bæredygtighed i bygge- og ejendomsbranchen. Gennem høj faglighed, erfaring og en stærk forankring i branchen, skabes dokumenteret bæredygtig udvikling med følgende emner:

• DGNB
  Vi administrerer og udvikler certificeringssystemet DGNB, der anvendes til at dokumentere bæredygtighedstiltag i byggeri, bygninger og byudvikling i Danmark.
• EU-Taksonomi
  Vi står bag branchens fælles oversættelse af EU-taksonomien til den danske bygge- og ejendomsbranche. Derudover udfører vi tredjepartsvalidering af efterlevelse af taksonomiens kriterier.

Bæredygtig Beton Initiativ

I Bæredygtigt Beton initiativs roadmap er der fremlagt konkrete forslag til, hvordan man fra start til slut i byggerier og anlægsprojekter kan bringe udledningen af CO2 ned. Initiativets målsætning er 70 % reduktion af CO2-udledningen i 2030 i forhold til 2019. 

I Bæredygtig Beton initiativet fokuseres på den viden, som vi allerede har samt på de teknologier, der er afprøvet og skal gøres gængse bl.a. via bedre bygherrekrav, tværgående samarbejdsformer og en systematisk vidensindsamling. 

Formandsskabet for styregruppen af Bæredygtig Beton Initiativ varetages blandt andet af Vibeke Starup Jacobsen, Director External Operations i CRH Concrete.
