Summary

Paragon Customer Communications UK, Luxembourg, and Ireland (PCC) is the largest division within Paragon Group and are at the leading edge of customer communications and workplace solutions across print, direct mail, marketing automation and digital transformation. PCC were considering the best approach to adopt for their Net Zero Strategy and partnered with JRP Solutions to provide guidance, consultancy and support.

Approach

JRP carried out a strategic review and supporting site audits to help PCC determine its full baseline environmental performance, including its full Scopes 1, 2 and 3 GHG emissions, priorities for action and likely returns on investment in becoming a more sustainable, cost-effective and more a climate resilient business.

Results

Using the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, JRP calculated PCC’s emissions footprint as 108,937 tonnes of CO2e across scopes 1, 2 and 3. The Net Zero Gap Analysis report prepared for PCC quantified and explained the company’s 2019/20 base year emissions footprint and JRP suggested routes to achieving Net Zero through governance enhancements, technology and behaviour shifts. This strategy provided a step change for PCC, enabling them to develop and release their Net Zero Plan. This is a critical requirement for some of their customers who are setting Net Zero targets and are rating their suppliers, including PCC, on how well they can match this. Just as their customers are pressing its suppliers to measure, monitor and reduce their emissions, so PCC is now better positioned to do the same.
