Working together, inspiring one another and working wisely towards a sustainable future. That is what motivates our CSR Director, Bramske van Beijma. In this interview, she shares her vision on sustainability, her experiences at home and abroad, and the important role of the BIG 5 as a driving force for change within Ballast Nedam.
We are committed to the objectives of the Paris Climate Agreement, which aims to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Through targeted measures, we are reducing CO₂ emissions from our construction sites, transport, offices and production sites (Scopes 1 and 2). We are also working with clients, suppliers and partners to reduce emissions throughout the supply chain (Scope 3). By reducing our energy consumption, phasing out fossil fuels and fully committing to electrification, we are working towards:
Scope 1,2 and 3:
Scope 1 and 2:
Our ambition is to use fewer primary raw materials when developing and delivering projects, to minimise our waste and to ensure that virtually all materials are reused to a high standard in the future. To achieve this, it is important to apply circular principles, such as demountability and modular construction, right from the design phase. The use of bio-based, reused and recycled materials is also taken into account during the design phase. We sort waste as effectively as possible to facilitate reuse.
