Corticeira Amorim SGPS SA 2012 SR
The report details Corticeira Amorim's sustainability performance in 2012, a year marked by record sales exceeding €500 million. A major highlight was the company's first independent carbon footprint calculation, which determined that its activities and the cork oak forests it supports sequester over 2 million tons of CO2 annually—15 times more than its total emissions. The company advanced its R&D efforts with 43 projects and 1,200 internal ideas, focusing on innovative cork applications in transport and construction. Despite these successes, the company fell short of some environmental targets, such as water consumption and carbon intensity reduction, due to operational changes. Community engagement remained strong through initiatives like cork oak planting and recycling programs.
