OUR WORK ON THE EU DEFORESTATION REGULATION

To further its efforts in its Sustainable Supply Chains strategy, Drive Sustainability launched an Environmental Due Diligence workstream in early 2024 with an initial focus: Getting to grips with the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).

In collaboration with its OEMs, Drive Sustainability’s work aims to help the automotive industry navigate compliance challenges pertaining to the EUDR and prepare them in the most effective way possible in achieving compliance.

To this end, a new Deforestation Sustainability Assessment Questionnaire was developed in collaboration with platform provider NQC. Please reach out to info@drivesustainability.org if you wish to obtain the file.
