APG|SGA Sustainability Report 2025: Greenhouse gases halved

APG|SGA Sustainability Report 2025 shows significant progress

APG|SGA publishes its annual Sustainability Reporting 2025 - once again underlining the key importance of transparency and measurable progress as part of its corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategy. In its 125th anniversary year, the leading Swiss out-of-home media company has reached significant milestones in the area of sustainability.

The greenhouse gas emissions of the entire Group were reduced by 46 percent compared to the previous year. According to the press release, the switch to renewable electricity at the Group company Alma Quattro d.o.o. in Serbia made a significant contribution to this. As a result, the proportion of renewable electricity across the Group has risen from 70 percent to 100 percent. As a result, APG|SGA has been able to meet its emissions reduction targets and achieve the interim target of 100 percent renewable electricity by 2025.

The electricity purchased in Switzerland for illuminated advertising, digital advertising, all business premises and electric vehicles has been sourced entirely from hydropower with the «naturemade star» seal of approval - the highest quality level for green electricity - since 2014.

New fleet strategy aims to save a further 700 tons of CO₂

In addition to reducing greenhouse gases by switching to renewable electricity, a new fleet strategy was rolled out in 2025. This provides for a gradual electrification of the vehicle fleet and should reduce annual emissions by around 700 tons of CO₂ equivalents in the future, it continues.

APG|SGA's efforts were recognized externally: As part of the recertification audit for the EcoEntreprise label, the highest level «EcoEntreprise Excellence» was achieved. In addition, the company once again received the top score of A in the Climate category in the international CDP rating, making it one of the world's leading companies in terms of the transparency and quality of climate reporting. The renewed certification as a «Great Place to Work» confirms the company's commitment to social responsibility and an appreciative corporate culture.

Biodiversity as part of the CSR strategy

Steep and shallow banks, sandbanks and ponds were created along new side arms of the Reuss - as a habitat for numerous animal and plant species, many of which are threatened with extinction. Around a fifth of the project costs were covered by ewz's «naturemade star» fund. by purchasing «naturemade star» electricity, APG|SGA contributes to the financing of such biodiversity projects.

With its 23rd sustainability reporting, APG|SGA reaffirms its commitment to living corporate social responsibility as an integral part of its business activities. Systematic reporting and consistent greenhouse gas accounting remain key instruments for making progress measurable and actively driving forward the sustainable transformation of the company.
