Most companies won't need to report under CSRD. Many still choose to.

CSRD mainly applies to large companies. Most small and mid-size businesses fall outside it, but many still face growing requests for sustainability data from customers, lenders and value chain partners, or simply want to get ahead of it. The EU's VSME standard gives smaller companies a credible, standardised way to report voluntarily, and it's often the right place to start.

We build carbon accounting, reporting and advisory around data you already have in your accounting systems, with the same advisor alongside you throughout, whichever standard applies to you.

Human rights & supply chain

Due diligence that stands up to scrutiny.

A growing number of European countries now require larger companies to map and address human rights and labour risks across their supply chain, starting with Norway's Transparency Act. The specifics vary by jurisdiction, but the underlying work is the same: assess the risk, document what you find, and show what you are doing about it.

We run that process end to end, from initial risk mapping to a published statement, as part of a broader sustainability programme rather than a one-off compliance exercise.

VSME is a voluntary EU reporting standard designed for small and medium-sized companies that are not yet in scope of CSRD but want a credible, standardised way to report. It is often the right starting point for smaller companies facing sustainability requests from customers or lenders.

A carbon account covers Scope 1 (direct emissions), Scope 2 (purchased energy) and Scope 3 (value chain) emissions. We build it from data already in your accounting system rather than starting a separate data collection project. More on carbon accounting.

Yes. The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive is an EU directive, so it applies to qualifying companies across all EU member states, and to non-EU companies with sufficient EU turnover. Most small and mid-size companies fall outside it — VSME is usually the better starting point if that's you.

Yes. Alongside company-level carbon accounting, we offer a climate calculator that models the emissions impact of individual products, useful for customer-facing reporting and comparing options such as new versus refurbished equipment.

It is usually part of a broader sustainability programme rather than a standalone exercise. We map supplier and human rights risk alongside your climate and reporting work, so everything draws on the same data and process. More on ESG advisory.
