The Wienerberger Sustainability Program 2023:Decarbonisation, Circular Economy and Biodiversity

Wienerberger has set itself the ambitious goal of reducing its
specific CO2 emissions by 2023 by 15 % compared to 2020 and
becoming climate-neutral by 2050 at the latest. The Wienerberger
Sustainability Program 2023 replaces the company’s Sustainability
Roadmap 2020. The value creation chains have been analysed and
five core topics defined: climate and energy, circular economy, biodiversity
and environment, employees as well as company ethics
and social impact.
As a globally operating company with almost 17 000 employees
and just under 200 production sites, Wienerberger subscribes to
the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the UN‘s Agenda
2030 as a global framework for sustainable development.
Dr. Johannes Rath (JR), CTO of the Business Unit Wienerberger
Building Solutions, kindly agreed to explain to us how this programme
will be implemented over the entire value chain –
from product development through procurement, selection of
raw materials and production to use, reuse or the recycling
of clay products. With its innovative building materials solutions
for the newbuild and renovation sectors, Wienerberger
is striving to make a key contribution to a significant improvement
of energy efficiency and water management. For this, the
BRICK BAUHAUS 2050 concept (page E 16) was developed, making
the transition to modern, resource-efficient, healthy and competitive
residential buildings in the spirit of the European Green
Deal.
