Our journey to support and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.
Working hard

An apple a day...
Thanks to our collaboration with Fruit@Work, Jaga chooses a healthy workplace environment, where a tasty and sensible snack is always within reach.
Soup as a Foundation
At Jaga, we are committed to the health of our employees and the planet. That’s why every Monday is ‘Veggie Day’, and we serve only vegetarian meals. This reduces our ecological footprint, promotes a healthy lifestyle, and respects diverse dietary preferences. In this way, we contribute to a more sustainable future and raise awareness about healthy eating.

Stop-smoking support
Two heads are better than one
Jaga is firmly opting for the future! We actively engage in collaborations with schools and educational institutions to work, together with young people, towards a more sustainable world!
A win-win-win for company, school & student!
Gender equality
Within our company, we attach great importance to equal opportunities for everyone, regardless of gender. This principle is embedded in our employment regulations, our code of conduct, and our reporting procedure, ensuring that everyone feels safe and respected. Our suppliers also endorse this commitment. They sign our code of conduct, in which they commit to the same standards of gender equality. In this way, we work together to ensure an inclusive and fair working environment.
One drop at a time
We reduce our wastewater through reuse and evaporation. Our process water comes from our own rainwater tanks, and all wastewater is treated responsibly. Every drop counts towards a sustainable future.
Renewable energy sources
Through investments in renewable energy, the output of our solar farm has increased from 580 to 1580 kW in 2024 and meet most of our energy needs.
Communication & Training, in-house & external
In 2006, Jaga built the Experience Lab, where visitors of all kinds could explore and experience the power of Jaga technology for themselves. With the opening of our Coollab in 2021, we provided even more of an experience, this time focusing on cooling. At that venue, we welcomed as many as 1,500 HVAC professionals, architects, engineers and students to share our story and related ecological climate solutions with. That number is set to rise substantially as we have opened our new Net Zero showroom in early 2024.
Scientific research
Jaga is currently surveying the environmental impact of its products.
ISO14040 is the international standard for calculating LCAs (life cycle analysis) of products.
European standard EN15804+A2 is taking this the next level and is defining the design of EPDs in the construction industry. (Environmental Product Declaration)
Jaga has now incorporated the certified EPD environmental declarations according to this European standard into the Dutch national environmental database for the Strada and Strada Hybrid products.
Process optimisations & production efficiency
Jaga continuously invests in its machinery. Efficiency, speed and precision all serve to make our units even more economical.
Renewable energy sources
Through investments in renewable energy, the output of our solar farm has increased from 580 to 1580 kW in 2024 and meet most of our energy needs.
To protect Jaga against digital threats, we offer realistic simulations and interactive training. Employees learn to recognize and respond to cyber risks through practical scenarios and online modules. This strengthens cybersecurity, protects sensitive information, and ensures business continuity.

Less shipping, more local production
Jaga reduces its carbon footprint.
We are moving the production of our Czech subsidiary back to Diepenbeek.
This equals a substantial reduction in our haulage kilometres, saving 440 kg of CO2 emissions each year.
Sustainable mobility
In 2023, Jaga doubled the number of charging stations to meet the needs of the ever-growing electric vehicle fleet.
From 2025 onwards, the only vehicles added to the fleet will be 100% electric cars.
Cultural & social added value
Jaga is not merely pursuing profit, but wants to create a cultural and social added value with projects such as Uchronia, Vikimania, Jonas & the fish.
Buy green
Our organisation has developed a purchasing policy of which sustainability is an integral part.
We reduce our ecological footprint through concrete actions:
- Thinner stretch film for pallets → 37% less plastic and ~ 1,700 kg CO₂e savings per year
- Recycled white paper is used for printing when still required.
- Cardboard boxes are sealed with paper tape instead of plastic tape.
Scopes
We aim to map our CO2 footprint to clearly identify areas where improvements can be made and take targeted actions to reduce our emissions.Today we mapped our scope 1 & 2 emissions. We will also map our scope 3 emissions, to have a complete overview of Jaga’s footprint, allowing us to identify areas for improvement

Know who you’re dealing with!
In our quest for a sustainable future, it is vital that we team up with partners who share our values. Therefore, we conducted an in-depth analysis of all our stakeholders.
At Jaga, we use Speakap to improve internal communication and strengthen collaboration. The platform connects employees, speeds up information sharing, facilitates event participation, and provides access to key documents. This promotes inclusion, efficiency, and innovation, which are essential for achieving our sustainability goals.
