Our 2030 sustainability goals
As one of four entities of RPM International Inc. Tremco CPG Europe (Tremco Construction Products Group Europe) is contributing to RPM's sustainability approach – Building a Better World. This program has a three-pillar approach consisting of Our Products, Our Processes and Our People.
With a dedication to doing the right things, the right way, for the right reasons, these pillars are built on a foundation of effective, ethical corporate governance and our core values of Transparency, Trust and Respect.
2030 Sustainability Goals

- Reduce Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions from our facilities by 25% per ton compared to a FY22 baseline
- Reduce waste to landfill from our facilities by 10% per ton of production compared to a FY25 baseline
- Develop and implement water stewardship plans for all facilities in areas of high or extremely high water stress
- 100% associate participation in our Code of Conduct training
What are Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions?
Scope 1 emissions are a measurement of the emissions from fuel we consume onsite in our company facilities and Scope 2 are a measurement of the electricity, steam, heating or cooling we purchase from utility companies.
Scope 1, or direct, emissions come from fuel combustion, such as burning natural gas for our boilers and furnaces and from company-owned vehicles (trucks, vehicles, forklifts, etc). Scope 1 emissions are released into the atmosphere as a direct result of our activities.
Scope 2 are emissions we cause indirectly when we purchase electricity, such as when a plant uses electricity purchased from a nearby power plant to power its production line.
