The Group’s sustainability roadmap is a central part of the overall business strategy and focuses on delivering measurable sustainability results. Through a combination of internal governance tools and external collaboration, XANO aims to become a market leader in sustainable business practices, with clear targets and timelines to reduce environmental impact, strengthen social responsibility and drive sustainable growth. Most of the targets extend to 2030, with interim milestones set for 2026 and 2028.

Each area includes specific goals with clear timelines and measurable key performance indicators.
