GoGreen250 – the sustainability initiative of Kurtz Ersa
Kurtz Ersa gives ecological, social and economic issues the importance they need in this day and age. With “GoGreen250”, an initiative was launched in 2020 that takes into account the various facets of sustainability. By the 250th anniversary in 2029, the transformation to a CO2-neutral company in its own business area (Scope 1+2, partly Scope 3) is to be implemented.
Through the continuous further development of “GoGreen250” and the consistent integration of ecological, social and economic aspects, we are already living the “More than Green” principle in many internal processes and initiatives.
In order to do justice to this entirety of topics, Kurtz Ersa has defined a total of six fields of action that consider our influence in our own business area, but also in the upstream and downstream supply chain, and aim to continuously improve them.
Specific targets and measures, KPIs and implementation are managed by our topic-related working groups. These groups develop sustainable solutions for our business division as well as for the upstream and downstream supply chain. In particular, we always keep an eye on our overarching goal of becoming a CO2-neutral company by 2029.
Sustainable brand values
Already with its brand values Global. Ahead. Sustainable., Kurtz Ersa shows how central the issue of sustainability is for the company. It is therefore only logical that this is also reflected in our organizational and communication structure. Just one example: the Advisory Board, shareholders, Global Board and all employees and managers are regularly informed about general business developments, including in the area of sustainability.
Environmental
This includes all targets, measures and projects as well as KPIs relating to environmental and climate protection. For example, the following goals are particularly important for Kurtz Ersa:
Social
People are the focus of our social activities - both as a responsible employer and as a reliable business partner. We live this in particular through:
Governance

Bei all diesen Aktivitäten verfolgen wir einen ganzheitlichen und internationalen Ansatz.
