Green Transition

The international logistics service company Varova wanted to enhance its staff’s competence in carbon footprint calculation and reporting. The goal was to ensure that customer discussions about CO₂ emissions are based on up-to-date information and that employees can interpret the content of emission reports.

Metehe Oy is a Finnish family-owned company that has been working with steel roofing and sheet metal since 1998. Carbon footprint is a key metric in Metehe’s upcoming sustainability reporting, which is why the company has committed to tracking it annually. With the calculation tool developed by Etteplan, Metehe can independently assess and monitor its carbon footprint.

Etteplan calculated Pirkanmaan Voimia’s 2024 carbon footprint in accordance with the GHG Protocol. The calculation covered all company operations and emission sources (scope 1–3), with special attention given to food-related emissions. Pirkanmaan Voimia annually provides 14 million meals in daycare centers, schools, hospitals, and other public services.

LMG Finland Oy, the world’s leading supplier of marine kitchen installations and high-quality stainless steel furniture, conducted its first organizational-level carbon footprint calculation in collaboration with Etteplan. The goal was to understand the company’s climate impacts and establish a foundation for future emissions reduction initiatives.

Etteplan carried out a comprehensive eco-consulting project for Audiovisual Producers Finland (APFI) association. The project included a training series titled “Sustainable Development in Production Companies,” which reached 15 Finnish film and TV production companies from March 20 to May 8, 2025. The trainings were part of a broader initiative that offered an open event for all audiovisual industry stakeholders, presenting key findings on the state of sustainability in production companies.

Etteplan conducted a carbon footprint calculation for Prakticum, a vocational school in Finland. This initiative aligns with Prakticum’s commitment to enhance environmental awareness and reporting in line with national climate goals. The conducted carbon footprint calculation and related development measures are also a key part of Prakticum’s new sustainability strategy for 2026-2030.

Etteplan facilitated emissions calculation trainings for the City of Joensuu and regional companies in 2023 and 2024. This initiative aligned with Joensuu’s commitment to support local businesses in their climate objectives. Reducing emissions is crucial for the city’s goal of carbon neutrality. By supporting companies’ climate initiatives, Joensuu also aims to enhance the competitiveness of local businesses and the vitality of the city.
