Climate change and emissions

Our ambition: A sustainable business, reducing our impact on the environment.

Our environmental goals

  1. Net zero by 2040
  2. Reduce energy use at our sites
  3. Increase proportion of electricity from renewable sources
  4. Minimise toxic emissions

Making progress in improving our energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions is important for our customers, staff and stakeholders.

We are committed as a Group to using energy and resources more efficiently, managing and reducing our carbon emissions and reducing hazardous waste and across all operations.

Recognising the urgent need to address climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we have developed ambitious net zero targets and a high-level decarbonisation pathway to manage our value chain emissions going forward. This, alongside our individual brands tracking and monitoring their environmental impacts aligns with our strategy of using ESG to drive our competitive advantage.

Our journey to net zero

Recognising the urgent need to address climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we have developed ambitious net zero targets and a high-level decarbonisation pathway to manage our value chain emissions.

Circular economy

Our ambition: Make the most efficient use of material resources across our Group.

Our environmental goals

  1. Make the most efficient use of material resources across our Group
  2. Minimise waste to landfill and increase recycled waste
  3. Reduce water use at our sites
  4. Operate at, or work towards, Environmental Management standard ISO 14001

We understand how rising demands on natural resources pose an increasing threat to economic growth and environmental stability. Across the Group, we aim to utilise resources as efficiently as possible to design out waste and extend product lifetimes.

Although we are at the start of our circular economy journey, we are starting to embed decisions that impact circularity into the way we operate and design our products.

Social and community engagement

Our ambition: To engage and support the communities in which we work.

At Norcros, we believe in making a meaningful difference in the communities in which we live and work. Community engagement is not a side project – it’s part of how we operate as a responsible business.

All of our brands are empowered to support causes that matter locally, whether through fundraising, volunteering, partnerships or in-kind contributions. This decentralised approach allows each business to respond to the needs of their own communities in authentic and impactful ways.
