With the growing importance of regulatory compliance, especially driven by the CSRD, Imbema needed a reliable solution to help them manage the extensive requirements of sustainability certifications and audits. They considered external consultants or hiring an employee, but both are resource intensive.

Due to this sustainability compliance pressure, Imbema faced the challenge of accurately tracking and reporting their carbon footprint across various business activities and multiple data sources. Their existing methods relied heavily on manual data collection and Excel spreadsheets, which were time-consuming and prone to errors.

‍

Imbema chose Coolset for its comprehensive sustainability management platform, which ensures compliance with CSRD and offers robust features for tracking carbon emissions. Coolset’s ability to manage both direct and indirect emissions data (scopes 1, 2, and 3) provided Imbema with a detailed overview of their environmental impact.

Coolset's platform allows Imbema to easily navigate through complex data and compliance requirements, making the reporting process more efficient and less resource-intensive. The availability of pre-configured templates and suggested answers further simplifies the data entry process, making it easier for Imbema to comply with audit requirements.

Since adopting Coolset, Imbema has significantly improved its sustainability reporting capabilities. The platform has streamlined the data collection process, reducing the time and effort required to gather and report emissions data. Imbema now has access to more detailed and accurate data across all emissions scopes, which has greatly enhanced their ability to monitor and reduce their environmental footprint.

“ The  platform  has  helped  us  get  a  better grip  on  our  carbon footprint,  especially  in  areas  where  we  previously  had limited visibility.”

The improvements in data accuracy and efficiency have also facilitated Imbema's compliance with various sustainability certifications like the CSRD and the CO2 performance ladder, ensuring that they meet the standards expected by their clients and regulatory bodies.

Imbema describes their relationship with Coolset as supportive and responsive. The partnership is characterized by quick communication, collaborative problem-solving, and a shared commitment to achieving Imbema’s sustainability goals.

Coolset’s dedicated support team has provided timely assistance and regular workshops, ensuring that Imbema’s use of the platform remains aligned with their evolving needs and challenges.

Looking ahead, Imbema aims to set new sustainability targets for the next 5 to 15 years, using Coolset’s platform to track progress and ensure they meet their environmental goals. The platform will continue to be a critical tool for Imbema as they work towards greater sustainability and compliance in their operations.
