The communications agency husare has published its updated environmental statement for 2026. The report documents the progress made in the environmental management system at the Emsdetten location and shows how key performance indicators have changed compared to the previous year.
A major milestone: At its Emsdetten site, husare obtains 100 percent of its electricity from renewable energy sources. In 2024, the share stood at 100 percent, up from approximately 50.9 percent the previous year.
Clear changes are also evident in other areas. Paper consumption has been drastically reduced—the number of printouts fell from 29,200 in 2023 to just 4,121 the following year. At the same time, husare was able to lower the CO₂ emissions per employee reported in the environmental statement: from 0.94 to 0.81 metric tons.
At the same time, the use of electrical infrastructure is on the rise, which is reflected, among other things, in higher electricity consumption—an effect of the growing shift toward e-mobility.
In addition to the key figures, the environmental statement also sets specific goals for the coming years. These include, among other things, reducing electricity consumption by an additional 10 percent compared to the base year specified in the environmental statement, as well as reducing paper consumption by 30 percent.
“For us, the environmental statement is not a mandatory reporting program, but a management tool,” says Mona Islek, Environmental Management Officer at husare. “We make progress visible, but above all we use it to make our next steps binding.”
The environmental statement is part of husare gmbh’s EMAS-registered environmental management system at its Emsdetten location and is updated annually. The next publication is scheduled for January 2027.
With the current version, husare ensures transparency regarding its environmental performance, goals, and measures, and continuously improves its environmental management.
