Green impact
The environment is important to Koole. That is why Koole measures the environmental performance of all its facilities, sets improvement targets, and presents the results to both the Management Board and the Supervisory Board. Koole monitors, among other things, the Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), Nitrogen Oxide emissions (NOx), total energy consumption and the resulting Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions. Although not mandated under the European Trade Law, Koole measures all emissions generated at its terminals and sets ambitious goals to achieve better performance levels than the minimum requirements set forth in the law.
Social impact
Our people are our most valuable asset. For Koole this means fostering a sustainable work environment that promotes safety, well-being and close engagement with the community. The key priorities for Koole in terms of social impact are: safety, people, public relations and community. All subjects have a connection with people and involves different approaches to promoting a culture of sustainability and sustainable practices. Koole proactively pursues these priorities to ensure a lasting relationship with all stakeholders.
Governance, risk management and compliance
Governance, risk management and compliance can be defined as a set of guidelines, rules, and procedures that are designed to prevent, monitor and address conduct or practices that are inconsistent with our sustainable, legal, ethical and business standards. This includes mechanisms required to balance the sustainable prosperity and viability of the organization and the environment.
