Decospan reaches a significant milestone through the release of its first corporate sustainability report. Two years ahead of the mandated reporting timeline under the Corporate Sustainability Responsibility Directive (CSRD), the report focuses on the company’s Belgium and France Nord sites and highlights the company’s sustainable development strategy established in 2023.
It includes both immediate goals and long-term aspirations spread over three key milestones: green by 2025, net zero by 2030, and net positive by 2040.
The report draws inspiration from Decospan’s mission to “create a world full of favourite places by bringing wood into everyone’s life”, and incorporates the Environmental, Social, and Governance principles.

Sustainable development goals
These objectives form a crucial component of the sustainability strategy and are supported by the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
They act as a guide to making informed decisions and ensure future resilience across the company’s integrated value chain. To achieve these ambitions, Decospan realises that a collaborative effort is essential.
Corporate governance
The company emphasises shared ownership and engagement through sound corporate governance and a collaborative approach to involve all committees in the strategic development of its sustainability objectives.
Powerful partnerships
Decospan chooses to invest in powerful partnerships and align itself with like-minded entities that share the determination to shape a fully circular, climate-neutral value chain.
Through close collaboration with all stakeholders across this value chain and involving them throughout the development of the sustainability plan, Decospan solidifies its role as a pioneer in sustainability, fostering growth, circularity, and innovation.
This report is the first of many ambitions in Decospan’s sustainability journey.
In 2025, the company aims to publish a sustainability report that extends to the entire Decospan group, to then continue mandatory yearly reporting as of 2026.
