Sustainability is a prominent topic within DDM that is pursued organisation-wide. It has our full attention on our projects: attention for employees, for reusing sustainable materials, for efficient energy consumption, for reusing equipment and materials and, finally, for the highest possible recycling percentage.
It cannot be denied that measures must be taken to protect the Earth for future generations. It is essential to prevent unnecessary environmental impact and to strive to minimize negative environmental effects.
However, this is not a recent issue; it has been a concern for a long time. For this reason, DDM started mapping its CO₂ emissions.
The CO₂ emissions, reduction targets and participation in sustainability initiatives are shared within the organization and externally every six months. As a result, employees within DDM are intrinsically motivated to reduce their CO₂ footprint, because a better world starts with yourself.
DDM is therefore certified according to the CO₂ Performance Ladder level 3 (Handbook 3.1) and will be certified in March 2026 at level 1 (Handbook 4.0). The certificate can be found at the bottom of this page and on the website of the SKAO:

Contributions to improve the sustainability policy are always welcome and can be sent to evd@ddm.eu.
DDM’s ambition is to further increase sustainability by investing in sustainable materials and equipment. Recently, investments have been made in environmentally friendly demolition excavators.
