Tessenderlo Group: turning ESG reporting into strategic decision-making

“Sustainability is the new license to operate”

How Tessenderlo Group is strengthening its ESG strategy with Climact

As sustainability requirements become more complex, industrial companies are under increasing pressure to turn ESG reporting into a strategic asset. For Tessenderlo Group, a highly diversified international industrial group, this meant finding a solution that could handle complexity while supporting better decision-making.

Bjorn Thijs, Head of Sustainability & Group Communications at Tessenderlo Group, explains why the company partnered with Climact.

From compliance to strategic insight

Operating across sectors such as construction, agriculture, textile machinery and water purification, Tessenderlo Group faces a wide range of sustainability challenges. With CSRD requirements raising the bar on reporting and data quality, the group needed an ESG software solution that went beyond compliance.

Together with Climact, Tessenderlo implemented an ESG tool aligned with CSRD Regulation, enabling:

• More efficient and automated data collection

• Greater transparency on sustainability performance

• More accurate carbon footprint calculations

• Stronger target-setting and investment decisions

The system gives us much more clarity on where we have impact and where sustainability investments make the most sense

Sustainability as a license to operate

For Tessenderlo Group, sustainability is essential to long-term success;

To be sustainable is the new license to operate, companies that are not sustainable will not have a future

Beyond reporting, sustainability is closely linked to Tessenderlo’s role in providing essential solutions, from clean water to agriculture and textiles, while continuously improving the sustainability of its products and services.
