The insights from TIMCON's recent meeting in Manchester, focusing on global collaborations with associations like FEFPEB and NWPCA. Learn about initiatives, including a new carbon calculator, and how the industry is addressing sustainability...

In today's dynamic business landscape, embracing sustainability isn't just about meeting regulatory requirements – it's about seizing opportunities for growth and staying ahead of the curve. As the laboratory services industry evolves, integrating sustainable practices into our operations isn't just an ethical imperative, but also a strategic advantage. The upcoming EU data regulation, mandating the disclosure of carbon footprints, presents a pivotal moment for companies also in our sector. By innovating and developing environmentally friendly processes, we not only reduce our carbon footprint but also position ourselves as leaders in sustainable business practices. Furthermore, transparency regarding our carbon footprint and sustainable initiatives isn't just good practice – it's a competitive advantage. By reporting on our sustainability efforts, we build trust with our clients and stakeholders, enhancing our reputation and attracting like-minded partners who value environmental responsibility. Many thanks to Sitra & Business Turku for hosting the insightful seminar a couple of weeks ago. #sustainability #csrd #leadersinprecision #precisionmatters
