About this report
This annual report provides financial and non-financial information about the Wolftank Group’s performance in 2023. The reporting period is 1 January to 31 December 2023. The financial part of this report has been prepared in accordance with the Austrian UGB reporting standard for accounting and consolidation. Both the consolidated and the relevant single entity report have been audited by third party auditors.
The non-financial part (sustainability report) presents the main topics of the Wolftank Group’s sustainability performance, including climate and environmental impacts as well as the social agenda. This comprehensive overview of our commitment, progress, and impact has been prepared converging from the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) into the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). ESRS were adopted by the European Commission in July 2023. Since then, the Wolftank Group has been preparing to switch its non-financial reporting from the previous GRI standard, according to which it has reported annually since 2020, to the new European Standards.
In this report, we aim to transparently communicate our efforts towards sustainable practices, environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and economic resilience. By adhering to the European Sustainability Reporting Standards in due time, we ensure consistency, comparability, and reliability in disclosing our sustainability performance. In terms of data collection, every subsidiary of the Wolftank Group is collecting data at a local level: designated and experienced employees collect the information and provide it to the Group Sustainability team in the format recommended by the ESRS. The Sustainability Management Team on group level is responsible for the comprehensive, group-wide data collection, analysis and reporting, with ongoing oversight and collaboration with the Group Executive Board.
We recognize the importance of sustainability as a driver of long-term value creation, and we are committed to continually improving our performance, fostering stakeholder trust, and contributing to a more sustainable future for all.
This annual report is visually enriched by the creative contributions of Wolftank Group colleagues in the “Show Us Your ‘Green'” internal photo contest. As part of our commitment to environmental sustainability, our colleagues were invited to capture and share images that define their interpretation of “green” – a theme that symbolizes our dedication to the environment and the dynamic energy of living. The contest generated a wide range of entries, each illustrating dynamic, positive moments, from nature scenes to workplace snapshots. While a jury selected the top three photos and the public (all employees) voted for an additional favorite, all submitted photos have been included in this report.
 | Every single image is marked with a special icon for recognition and, in addition, collectively displayed in a captivating “mosaic” on a dedicated page, showcasing our collective talent and reinforcing our shared values. |
Photos submitted to the contest are part of this report. Congratulations on the excellent quality of the entries! We thank all participants:
