Published: 17 March 2025

Adler & Allan is leading the way in environmental risk reduction, dedicated to turning ESG principles into tangible impact. The company tackles five critical challenges: pollution prevention, water resource management, biodiversity protection, energy transition, and climate change adaptation.

Today, Adler & Allan announced the release of its 2024 ESG Report, highlighting a landmark year of sustainability progress and strategic benchmark setting.

Over the past years, Adler & Allan has firmly embedded ESG principles across its operations and services, establishing key measures that provide a strong foundation for long-term impact. The company has not only strengthened its own sustainability performance but also helped clients navigate ESG challenges through its innovative solutions.

"ESG is not an initiative for us – it’s part and parcel of what we do as a company on a daily basis. It shapes how we operate, how we support our clients, and how we drive change," said Henrik Pedersen, CEO of Adler & Allan. "The benchmarks and measures we’ve set this year are just the beginning. We are committed to continuous improvement, ensuring our ESG strategy remains at the forefront of industry leadership."

Industry benchmarking success: Adler & Allan has achieved a 13-point increase in its EcoVadis sustainability rating, elevating its position to the 80th percentile globally – a significant jump from the 49th percentile in 2023.
Carbon intensity reduction: Despite substantial business growth, the company has successfully reduced carbon intensity by 19% compared to 2023, demonstrating a clear decoupling of emissions from expansion.

Health and safety: A 44% increase in health and safety training hours, alongside the launch of employee-led inclusivity programmes, underscores the company’s commitment to workplace well-being.
Governance and ethical leadership: Strengthening business integrity, Adler & Allan has enhanced business ethics training, expanded supplier ESG assessments, and introduced a whistleblowing platform to reinforce transparency and accountability.

“ESG is not an initiative for us – it’s part and parcel of what we do as a company on a daily basis. It shapes how we operate, how we support our clients, and how we drive change.”
