TDX has joined an increasing number of companies around the world taking a leadership position in the area of sustainability.

The company recently announced it has achieved a Toitū carbonreduce certification, where Toitū will assist TDX on its decarbonisation journey as they actively look at ways to reduce their carbon emissions, lessen their impact on the environment, and deliver a more sustainable future.

Toitū currently serves more than 900 clients worldwide with a team of scientists and business experts that lead positive change through a system of robust carbon and environmental programmes that are internationally recognised and certified to an ISO 14064-1:2018 standard.

“Toitū will assist us in setting up our company baseline by first measuring our carbon output. The next step will see us setting targets and actions to reduce our overall carbon footprint,” says Colm Hamrogue, CEO of TDX.

“Rather than paying lip service to sustainability, we’re going to the next level and measuring our outputs then making a concerted effort to actively reduce our emissions using science-based tools and evidence.”

Belinda Mathers, chief science and advisory officer of Toitū Envirocare, says, “It’s great to see TDX is now Toitū carbonreduce certified. It demonstrates their commitment to measuring and reducing their carbon emissions.

We need more businesses and industries to step up. As a prominent heavy machinery company operating in high-emissions sectors, this sets a powerful example of holding yourself accountable and offering emission reduction options. Moving to lower emissions machinery is not the end goal but it’s a great starting place.” 

To further demonstrate their commitment to the programme, TDX has employed a full-time sustainability and quality manager, whose sole responsibility is overseeing the company’s journey toward emissions reduction.

“We want to be a true market leader in this space, which means talking the talk and walking the walk. It’s more than just making small changes such as turning lights out when leaving a room or an increased focus on recycling. We’re in the process of identifying areas in which we can make significant wins,” adds Colin.
