UK-based rental company Speedy Hire has joined the Exponential Roadmap Initiative, a coalition of organisations aiming to halve emissions before 2030 through exponential climate action and solution. 

To be accepted into the Exponential Roadmap Initiative, Speedy had to demonstrate how they are radically reducing emissions, transforming their business and shifting portfolios to climate solutions.

It convenes these industry-leading companies from all sectors, creating a community to learn, develop and share best practice.

Amelia Woodley, ESG director, Speedy Hire, said, “Joining the Exponential Roadmap Initiative is valuable not only because its work on circularity and climate solutions is cutting-edge, but also because creating real change can only be achieved through collaboration.

“The Initiative enables us to work with other climate leaders in global businesses around the world, to help enable Speedy Hire to continue to be ahead of the curve and achieve our strategy to deliver on sustainability for our customers, people, communities and our planet.”

Johan Falk, CEO and co-founder, Exponential Roadmap Initiative, added, “Speedy Hire’s work aligns very well with what we want to see from all companies: the integration of climate at the highest level of the company, in its strategy, business development and product management.

“Speedy Hire also has circularity at the heart of its business. We look forward to supporting Speedy Hire in further increasing its climate ambition and working with suppliers and its client base to reduce emissions across the complete value chain.”

Founded in 2018, the Exponential Roadmap Initiative comprises of more than 30 members, including Skanska, Netflix, Scania and Google.
