Etteplan has supported Rudus’s carbon footprint calculation since 2019

Rudus is Finland’s leading manufacturer of rock-based construction materials, offering products and materials for earthworks as well as infrastructure and building construction. The company operates an extensive network of ready-mixed concrete plants, precast factories, aggregates sites, and reception points for recyclable construction materials. Rudus is part of the globally operating CRH Group.

Etteplan has calculated Rudus’s organizational carbon footprint in 2019, 2021, and 2024. This long-term collaboration has enabled Rudus to monitor emissions development and compare results in the long term.

The carbon footprint calculations covered both greenhouse gas emissions generated directly by Rudus’s own operations and emissions caused by its value chain operations. The carbon footprints were calculated at both group and business operation levels, enabling the effective use of the results in the organization.

The carbon footprint assessments also identified significant emission reduction potential. These insights enable Rudus to plan and target effective measures to systematically reduce its emissions.

Rudus’s Sustainability Director, Terhi Rauhamäki, describes the collaboration with Etteplan as smooth and considers Etteplan a reliable and highly competent partner in supporting carbon footprint calculations and climate work: “We have been very satisfied with the carbon footprint calculations carried out by Etteplan and the related projects. The workflow has been clear and has met our expectations. The work has been carried out flexibly, listening to our needs, and the quality of the work has been excellent.”

The carbon footprint calculation work has provided Rudus with versatile added value, particularly from learning and communications perspectives.

“As a result of the projects, we received exactly what we ordered—and even a bit more through additional meetings and discussions. Added value has come from our own learning during the process, and the clear and illustrative materials produced by Etteplan have also had significant communication value for our stakeholders,” Rauhamäki concludes.
