According to PwC’s Global Investor Survey 2024:

• 94% of investors believe ESG data should be assured to the same standard as financial data

• 75% say they would penalise companies that fail to provide complete Scope 3 emissions disclosures

• 78% plan to reallocate capital away from ESG underperformers

The message is clear: vague estimates and partial disclosures are no longer acceptable.

As the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) takes full effect across the EU, Scope 3 emissions have become a central focus in sustainability reporting. For large and listed companies, the requirement to disclose value chain emissions marks a significant step up in climate accountability.

Unlike Scope 1 and 2 emissions—relating to direct operations and purchased energy—Scope 3 encompasses all other indirect emissions across an organisation’s value chain. These include transport, procurement, subcontractors, materials, and waste. It’s where the majority of emissions typically occur—and where the biggest challenges lie.

As sustainability regulations tighten across Europe, the pressure on companies to back up their climate claims has never been greater. Under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), organisations must disclose detailed, verifiable emissions data—including Scope 1, 2, and 3—with the same rigour as financial reporting.

The devastating impacts of the mica and pyrite scandals have demonstrated the need for a reliable, verifiable system to ensure proper documentation of construction materials. Hub360’s app provides an efficient and secure way to record material deliveries and movements, offering transparency and accountability while keeping control firmly in the hands of the app users and relevant stakeholders.

In 2024, the Irish government introduced new regulations known as the Circular Economy (Waste Recovery Levy) Regulations. These rules are set to significantly impact how construction and demolition (C&D) waste is handled and could bring about additional costs for developers. If you’re a developer, it's essential to understand the implications of this levy so you can manage your projects and budgets effectively.

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:

In the world of construction, the focus on sustainability and green procurement is more pronounced than ever before. As regulatory pressures increase and public demand for environmentally responsible practices grows, companies are looking for ways to align their operations with these values. This is where HUB360 steps in, offering a robust solution for enhancing green procurement and ensuring sustainability in construction projects.

TTII – Transport Infrastructure Ireland has identified what is needed to implement a circular economy approach in our national road projects which identifies key strategies aimed at maximising material reuse, minimising waste, and promoting sustainable practices throughout the project lifecycle. These include;

Truck drivers face unique challenges on the road, from managing complex schedules to staying organised and efficient.  The HUB360 Tipper & Bulk App is a game-changing tool designed specifically for truck drivers, offering a wide range of benefits and simplifying their daily operations. In this blog post, we will explore how the HUB360 Tipper & Bulk App  can transform the lives of truck drivers, making their jobs smoother and more efficient.

The delivery of goods, movement of materials, and use of emission-heavy-duty trucks are all areas where digital technologies can help improve efficiency, sustainability, and safety. Despite this the construction industry has been slow to adopt digital technologies in its logistics operations, and this has resulted in outdated business practices that are inefficient, costly, and unsustainable.
