## Our vision for a responsible future
When it comes to sustainability, we are eager to take our responsibility. We do this together; alongside colleagues, partners, and suppliers, we seek solutions to operate more sustainably. Step by step, we make a positive difference. We celebrate the successes we have already achieved and roll up our sleeves for the improvements to come. Sustainability is on our agenda every day, and we are achieving increasingly more sustainable results. And we are proud of it!
## View our sustainability vision
Serge Timmermans, CCO of MCB, talks about the MCB Companies vision for sustainability.
### **CORE: CO₂ reduced metals**
With our CORE products, you can easily choose CO₂ reduction, with three options: -33%, -66%, or 100% lower CO₂ emissions. With every purchase, you receive a CORE certificate, which you can use for your sustainability reporting (Scope 3) and share with your customers. This way, you not only help reduce your own footprint but also contribute to a more sustainable metal supply chain.
[More about our CORE products](https://content.mcbspecials.eu/en/core-co2-reduced-metals?hsLang=en)
### **PCF: Product Carbon Footprint**
With the PCF subscription (Product Carbon Footprint), you gain clear insight into the CO₂ emissions of the products you purchase. You will receive PCF certificates and detailed reports per order, month, and year. This data can be used for your Scope 3 reporting, in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol. In this way, you make your sustainability efforts transparent for yourself and your customers.
[More about the PCF subscription](https://content.mcbspecials.eu/en/product-carbon-footprint?hsLang=en)
### **Wood4Wood Pallet Recycling**
With Wood4Wood, we promote the reuse of pallets and reduce waste. We collect pallets free of charge during return trips, repair them if necessary, and put them back into use. Each year, you receive a green certificate for the CO₂ saved, providing transparency on your sustainability efforts. Our goal is to have 80% of all pallets recycled by 2030.

## EcoVadis Medals

## MCB's sustainability themes
In recent years, MCB has implemented various measures to make our operations more sustainable, and we will continue to do so in the years to come. For example, the greening of our vehicle fleet and the installation of solar panels and LED lighting have contributed to an 8.2% reduction in our CO₂ emissions in Scope 1 and 2 over the past three years.
Within the MCB companies, we work on sustainability across four themes. For each theme, we implement activities to achieve sustainability goals. Curious? Check our theme pages below:
