8 Sustainability Report 2024 | Introduction & overview


Our place in the world


Crown Worldwide Group’s approach to sustainability defines our place in the world. It builds on almost six decades of corporate social responsibility (CSR) work, which has seen us stand side-by-side with our people, our clients and the communities in which we operate.


In the last two years, we have taken big steps to broaden our legacy, seeking to take a simple, progressive approach, focused in particular on how we can reduce environmental impact – while continuing to deliver on the social and governance agendas.


In line with our purpose of making it simpler to live, work, and do business anywhere in the world, and our values – which consistently guide our approach – these areas influence every aspect of how we manage our business and its brands, and develop and deliver our services.


Materiality


In 2023 Crown Worldwide Group started the process of a global materiality assessment.


This GRI-driven assessment process will enable us to identify, prioritize and validate material topics, recognizing rapid changes in our company, our business units, our clients, and across society.


Based on the results of the materiality assessments, we intend to build a set of ESG strategies and set targets to track the effectiveness of our management, and our performance against material sustainability issues.


In line with the GRI Standards, we assess our impacts on the economy, the environment and people, including human rights.


Based on an initial assessment – coupled with materiality assessments coordinated in several of our key local markets – the material topics shortlisted so far are set out here.


These topics form the basis of the 2024 Sustainability Report (reporting on FY23).
