Sustainability

CV Labels is committed to sustainability and environmental responsibility.
As part of our climate action strategy, we have set a formal target to reduce our absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 21% by 2029, using 2024 as our base year.

This reduction goal demonstrates our commitment to lowering the environmental impact of our operations and progressing on our journey toward long‑term decarbonisation. We will continue to review our emissions and report on our progress annually.

We will achieve these aims by:

  • Consume energy responsibly, with a preference for renewable options.
  • Ensuring responsible disposal of waste with a focus on recycling wherever feasible.
  • Promoting awareness and limiting the environmental and operational impact of company vehicle use and company travel.
  • Promoting sustainable practices across our supply chain and business partnerships.
  • Continue work on our Ecovadis accreditation (currently Silver) Ecovadis is a globally recognised assessment platform that rates businesses’ sustainability based on four key categories: environmental impact, labour and human rights standards, ethics, and procurement practices.
  • Continue work with SME Climate Hub reporting our progress on carbon reduction.
