UK companies may be affected by the CSRD in the following scenarios:

1. Listed Securities: Companies with securities listed on an EU regulated market must comply with CSRD reporting obligations, regardless of their location.

2. EU Net Turnover: Companies with an EU net turnover exceeding €150 million over the past two consecutive years are subject to the CSRD if they have:

   • An EU subsidiary that is a large undertaking or has listed securities, or

   • An EU branch generating over €40 million in turnover in the previous financial year.

As the European Union sharpens its focus on sustainable finance, the recent adoption of the European Green Bond (EuGB) standard marks a pivotal step in ensuring that funds raised for green projects are used responsibly and transparently. For public bodies accessing green finance, this development highlights the critical need to report on their sustainability practices and maintain a proper audit trail for scrutiny. Hub360 is a crucial tool in achieving these objectives, ensuring that public sector entities not only comply with new regulations but also set a benchmark for transparency and accountability in green finance.

The construction and demolition (C&D) sector is a significant contributor to waste generation, accounting for approximately one-third of all waste produced annually in the European Union. With C&D waste consisting largely of excavated soil and stone (around 85%), along with materials like concrete, brick, tiles, glass, metal, plastic, and wood, managing this waste stream effectively is crucial. At Hub360, we are committed to helping organisations in the construction sector implement sustainable waste management oversight that align with evolving regulations and contribute to the circular economy.

In the construction industry, transparency and accountability are crucial. Project owners need to know what materials have been used on-site and what materials and waste have gone off-site. They are responsible for ensuring these materials are disposed of or moved to their intended destinations. Hub360 provides a comprehensive solution with verifiable data, ensuring that all movements related to site operations are accurately documented and transparent for everyone involved. In this blog post, we'll explore how Hub360's verifiable data enhances transparency and accountability, transforming site management practices.

The construction and infrastructure industry faces increasing demands for sustainable practices and strict adherence to regulatory standards. The imminent Corporate Social Responsibility Disclosure (CSRD) mandates are driving the need for user-friendly tools that provide clear transparency and accountability without excessive labour spent on report preparation and compliance verification. Additionally, the industry must account for emissions throughout the value chain. Hub360 stands out as a pivotal resource, fulfilling the diverse reporting needs critical to various project participants such as investors, developers, multinational corporations, and government entities.

For developers not using the HUB360 Tipper App, several pain points arise, especially when managing construction and demolition (C&D) waste and aggregate materials within the rigorous compliance frameworks and environmental sustainability goals. These challenges include:

The logistics industry is one of Europe's biggest, generating in excess of €900 bn each year and employing more than 7 million workers. It also features the most labour-intensive processes that have traditionally focused heavily on legacy paper-based systems, meaning that it's an industry that's open to disruption by options that offer improved efficiency.

Ireland's journey towards efficient waste management and sustainability is a compelling narrative of progressive change, punctuated by pivotal legislation. Over the years, policies and laws have evolved to address the growing need for waste reduction, recycling, and the implementation of a circular economy. The cornerstone of this evolution has been the Waste Directive Regulations of 2011, which have significantly reshaped the landscape of waste management in Ireland.

CEOs of manufacturing companies understand the importance of delivering an exceptional customer experience to succeed in today's high-tech landscape.

However, it's crucial to question whether your customer's delivery experiences are still fit for purpose in this modern era.

Are you keeping up with the latest technologies and trends to provide your customers with the real-time visibility, streamlined communication, and flexible delivery options they expect? It's time to ensure your delivery experience is up-to-date to meet the evolving demands of your customers and stay ahead of the competition

Visibility in supply chain management refers to the ability to track and monitor goods and information as they move through the supply chain. It enables stakeholders to have real-time information on the status and location of shipments, as well as any potential delays or issues that may arise.

Something else to keep your eye on as we move into 2021 is the increased adoption of robotics in the supply chain. Route planning, live vehicle tracking and intelligent transportation are just some of the benefits being offered and enjoyed by logistics professionals, but this is just the tip of the iceberg of what we might be seeing soon.

It can’t have escaped your notice that the world has changed somewhat over the last month or two and the restriction on movement is having a huge impact on business mechanisms around the world. However, this issue and the problems it presents are able to be mitigated using digital transformation technologies that allow for remote working.
