CSRD for Suppliers

How Suppliers Strengthen Partnerships through CSRD Compliance

Understanding CSRD for Suppliers

From 2024, suppliers play a critical role in helping corporate clients comply with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). The directive requires companies to disclose value-chain emissions under the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), including ESRS E1 for Climate Change.

Providing verified sustainability data strengthens commercial relationships and helps suppliers remain preferred partners in regulated supply chains.
