CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION
Aware of the climate emergency and the role companies must play in the transition to a low-carbon economy, at AODACi we have been implementing concrete measures to mitigate climate change , focusing on reducing greenhouse gas emissions across the entire value chain.
Additionally, our clients increasingly value transparency and environmental performance. Therefore, measuring, monitoring and reducing our carbon footprint is a priority: not only to ensure alignment with legal and market requirements, but also to improve our processes and contribute to a low-carbon economy. The economic activity of distributing promotional gifts, often with a short life cycle or disposable, is associated with significant environmental impacts, namely the continuous emission of greenhouse gases (GHG). The lack of control over these indirect emissions represents a concrete challenge to the transition to a low-carbon economy. Transporting materials and products from countries far from our warehouses is associated with higher GHG emissions. Thus, we intend to increase the number of qualified suppliers located in Europe, thereby reducing that distance. In addition, we plan to introduce selection criteria that favour suppliers with carbon-offsetting practices, thus helping to improve the emission balance of the supply chain. The growing demand for products with a lower climate impact is an incentive for innovation and differentiation by presenting design solutions with a smaller carbon footprint. The use of recycled, recyclable or natural materials can not only reduce associated emissions but also strengthen our value proposition with clients and increase the market share of our products.
