First year of implementation of the sustainability programme
Kojamo’s sustainability programme is based on the company’s strategy and mission of creating better urban living. In accordance with its sustainability programme published in December 2020, Kojamo is committed to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and to achieving carbon-neutral energy consumption in its properties by 2030.
Kojamo’s sustainability programme includes four sustainability focus areas. These are: sustainable cities; the best customer experience; the most competent personnel and a dynamic place to work; and a responsible corporate citizen. The supporting pillars of the sustainability programme are securing long-term profitability and growth, sustainable and responsible operations and transparent sustainability communications and reporting.
The most significant recognition for sustainability work in 2021 was the success in the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB). Kojamo participated in the GRESB assessment for the second time and improved its results, receiving 77 points out of 100. The score improved by seven points compared to the previous year. With this result, Kojamo outperformed both its own comparison group and the average score of all participants in the assessment and earned its second Green Star recognition and three stars out of five.

Selected environmental indicators for energy consumption, water consumption and emissions were subject to the validation. This is the first time the validation has been carried out.
