To achieve this milestone, we partnered with Carbon Neutral, one of Australia’s leading carbon services providers, to measure and offset our organisational emissions for calendar year 2025.
We selected quality Australian and international carbon credits to offset the carbon emissions, which are outlined below.
Wandalong Biodiverse Reforestation Project (Australian Carbon Credit Units)
Located within the Yarra Yarra Biodiversity Corridor in the northern wheatbelt of Western Australia. This reforestation initiative is restoring native habitat on 2,384 hectares of semi-degraded, unproductive farmland in a region where more than 90% of native vegetation has been cleared for agriculture.
Through the planting of native trees and shrubs indigenous to the region, the project supports the return of wildlife while simultaneously removing carbon from the atmosphere, improving soil health, and helping to reduce salinity and soil erosion.
Vaspet-II and Vaspet-III Wind Power Project (Verified Carbon Units)
Based in Maharashtra, India, the projects comprise 33 wind turbine generators with a combined installed capacity of 49.5 MW. By supplying renewable wind energy into India’s carbon-intensive electricity grid, the projects reduce reliance on fossil fuels and contribute to lower greenhouse gas emissions.
In addition to their environmental benefits, the projects deliver important social and economic outcomes for surrounding rural communities. Investment in the region has supported infrastructure improvements and created local employment opportunities during both the construction and operational phases. Increased electricity availability also supports regional industrial and commercial activity, contributing to economic growth, enhanced land values, and broader sustainable development outcomes.
We are incredibly proud to reach this milestone, as it reflects our ongoing commitment to the carbon sector we serve, and ensures our own operations meet the high standards of transparency and impact we champion for our clients.
