Why Construction Companies Should Choose CG Business Consulting for CSRD Reporting

Navigating CSRD Compliance in the Construction Industry

The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is transforming how companies report on their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) impacts. As a construction company, complying with CSRD isn’t just about ticking a regulatory box, it’s about ensuring long-term sustainability, reducing risk, and gaining a competitive edge in an industry that’s evolving at pace.

At CG Business Consulting, construction is one of our key industries. We understand the unique challenges and opportunities this sector faces when it comes to ESG compliance and sustainability reporting. Our expertise ensures that your business is fully prepared for CSRD, avoiding compliance pitfalls while unlocking business benefits that could future-proof your company.

What is CSRD and How Does It Impact the Construction Industry?

The CSRD is an EU directive that mandates large and listed companies to provide more detailed and standardized sustainability reports. Expanding on its predecessor, the Non-Financial Reporting Directive (NFRD), the CSRD requires companies to disclose their environmental impact, social policies, governance structures, and overall sustainability efforts. And while right now it applies to large businesses, the reality is that CSRD will soon reach companies of all sizes, making it essential for construction firms to act now rather than scramble later.

For the construction industry, CSRD reporting is particularly significant because:

• High Environmental Impact – The sector contributes nearly 40% of global CO₂ emissions and heavily relies on resource-intensive materials like cement, steel, and timber.

• Supply Chain Complexity – Construction involves multiple stakeholders, from raw material suppliers to subcontractors, requiring transparency across the entire value chain.

• Increasing ESG Expectations – Clients, investors, and regulators demand proof of sustainable practices, influencing everything from project approvals to access to funding and tenders.
