The assessment further evaluated Centena Group’s performance, emphasising strength and key areas
for improvement, where the company scored 71 per cent in preparedness and awareness. The Group’s
key achievements, included reducing its carbon footprint through best-in-class conservation and energy-
efficient practices, closely monitoring resource consumption, implementing waste segregation for
hazardous and electronic waste, and setting quarterly reduction targets for energy and water usage.

Furthermore, the assessment identified opportunities for greater impact, such as optimising transportation
to reduce emissions, investing in carbon offset initiatives like tree planting or renewable energy projects
and expanding waste reduction strategies to cover office and food waste alongside hazardous and
electronic waste.

Sanjay Raghunath, Chairman and Managing Director of Centena Group said: “At Centena Group, we
believe that real success lies in improving and creating a greater positive impact. While we take pride in
this achievement, it also reflects our long-term strategy to stringently evaluate ESG readiness across our
divisions, identify gaps and build a targeted growth plan. The ESG Label serves as a roadmap for
organisations striving to align with best global practices in sustainability, and we aim to take meaningful
actions that benefit our stakeholders, communities and the planet.”

Centena Group has been constantly embedding sustainability across its diverse business divisions. For
instance, its security division, ScreenCheck, helps to reduce waste generation and lower energy
consumption through rewritable ID cards, energy-efficient data centre technologies, and AI-driven access
control systems. The Group’s industrial and analytical arm, Emphor IPS, supports companies in meeting
environmental standards by providing advanced water analysis and treatment systems, emission
monitoring, and metering solutions.

Similarly, Maritronics, its marine electronics business, safeguards marine ecosystems with ballast water
management systems and company’s education arm, ATLAB, empowers students with hands-on learning
tools in renewable energy, conservation, and sustainable mobility, equipping a new generation to tackle
future environmental challenges.
Building on the assessment results, Centena Group has set new objectives, including adopting the 3Rs
(Reduce, Reuse and Recycle) approach across its operations and expanding its waste management
programs to more departments. These initiatives form part of the company’s renewed sustainability
roadmap designed to lead continuous improvement in ESG performance year on year.

Based on a strong foundation and clear goals, Centena Group is reinforcing its position not only as a
high-performing business, but also as a leader in integrating ESG principles at the core of its corporate
strategy.
