Case study: Hanzestrohm
Both. Run the start as a project: the gap analysis, the double materiality assessment and the first report need a plan, milestones and a deadline. After that, CSRD becomes an ongoing process, with data owners, controls and an annual reporting cycle built into how the business runs, much like financial reporting.
Client context: Hanzestrohm is a Dutch family-owned company providing solutions across construction, industry, energy, and infrastructure. It delivers specialized products and services that support sustainable development and operational efficiency across multiple sectors.
Industry: Construction, Industry, Energy, and Infrastructure.
Expert(s) provided: Nienke S.
Key result: Successful in-person LCA/EPD workshop for product managers.
