Tracked greenhouse gas emissions

Marco began regularly cataloguing its greenhouse gas emissions, resulting in a reduction of its emissions from 1906 tonnes (Oct 21 to Mar 22) to 880 tonnes (Oct 22 to Mar 23). The company also states that it began tracking and targeting greenhouse gas emissions reduction in 2021, resulting in a 54% decrease in the year that followed.

Used waterless testing

For over a decade, Marco has utilised a means of waterless testing in its production facilities to allow it to test many of its machines without water, or the energy required to heat that water. The company says a case study found that it is unique in its industry in this regard.
