BIRN Group, of which TASSO is a part, has just published its 2025 sustainability report. Although the group is still not subject to the EU’s sustainability reporting requirements, BIRN Group has once again chosen to document and highlight its sustainability efforts to customers, partners, and employees.
For BIRN Group – and thus also for TASSO – the sustainability report is not just about reporting. As an international foundry group, BIRN Group is increasingly finding that customers are demanding documentation of climate impact, resource consumption, and responsible production throughout the value chain. That is why sustainability has become an integral part of how the group conducts its business.
- At TASSO, we are pleased to contribute to a strong and transparent reporting framework where our efforts within energy efficiency, resource optimisation, and workplace safety become visible and valuable to both customers and employees. This motivates us to continue developing our sustainability initiatives together with the rest of the group, says Kristian Bundgaard Pedersen, Managing Director at TASSO.
At TASSO, several sustainability initiatives were implemented during 2025, including increased efficiency in production through the Training Within Industry (TWI) system, investments in new production equipment, and initiatives aimed at reducing fossil fuel consumption and strengthening recycling of materials and production waste.
- Although we are not yet subject to the new EU requirements for sustainability reporting, we find that our work on documentation and transparency creates value for our customers. We see a growing need for insight into areas such as climate footprint and material consumption, and therefore we want to continue to highlight our efforts and results through a comprehensive sustainability report, says Flemming Juel Jensen, Group CEO at BIRN Group.
The report describes how BIRN Group works strategically with sustainability within the areas of Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG). This work is based, among other things, on the group’s materiality analysis, which identifies the areas where BIRN Group has the greatest impact and where external demands simultaneously have the greatest significance for the business.
In the areas of climate and the environment, the primary focus is on energy consumption and the volume of production waste, while the key focus in the social area is on safety, employee turnover, and age distribution. In the area of corporate governance, attention is directed toward, among other things, cybersecurity and responsible supplier relationships.
The sustainability report shows that, as a group, we are fulfilling our commitment to working in a structured manner to reduce our climate footprint, strengthen the organization, and ensure responsible management. This is a positive development that we look forward to continuing.
