Caljan ESG Wheel

The Caljan Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Wheel represents the culmination of a collaborative process, drawing on a wealth of ideas and expertise as we work toward a more sustainable future. The spokes of the wheel highlight the key issues we’ve identified as most relevant to focus on. Maintaining balance between the Environmental, Social, and Governance components is essential, reflecting the interconnected nature of sustainability.

Environment

We prioritize energy efficiency, waste reduction, and emissions control. Our ISO 9001, 14001, and 50001 certifications in Denmark and Latvia reflect this commitment. In 2023, our new German facility launched with sustainability at its core. We’re working toward SBTi validation and aim for 100% renewable energy use by 2030 while reducing CO₂ emissions.

Social Responsibility

We promote a diverse, inclusive, and safe workplace. Safety training and initiatives have led to an 87% reduction in LTIs and a 78% drop in total incidents in 2023. We also support global causes like SOLVATTEN, which provides clean water to those in need.

Governance

Our governance is rooted in transparency, compliance, and accountability. All policies and procedures are centralized on our Caljan IPW platform. Strategic safety reporting and training, along with a strong anti-corruption policy, help ensure ethical and consistent practices across the company.
