Corps Security has released its 2026 Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) report, outlining its performance during 2025 across environmental, social and governance priorities.
The report shows the company reduced its overall carbon footprint by 18.57% compared with the previous year, while also achieving Platinum certification from Neutral Carbon Zone, raising £275,000 for its charity partners and introducing an enhanced compliance monitoring system.
The company’s emissions reductions were recorded across all three reporting scopes as it continues working towards its target of reaching net zero by 2050.
Scope 1 emissions decreased by 35.26% year-on-year to 93.68 tCO2e, primarily due to the ongoing transition of its vehicle fleet to electric models.
Scope 2 emissions fell by 5.40% to 35.91 tCO2e following the wider adoption of renewable energy tariffs across the company’s properties.
Scope 3 emissions, which account for the majority of the organisation’s carbon footprint, totalled 6,098.49 tCO2e, representing an 18.31% reduction from 2024.
Corps Security also received Platinum certification from Neutral Carbon Zone, the highest level within the programme, recognising that its emissions reporting meets international standards. The company retained its Silver EcoVadis rating, with its environmental performance placing it among the top 3% of companies in the security sector assessed by the organisation.
As a certified social enterprise, Corps Security also expanded its social impact initiatives during the year. The company achieved Corporate Ready certification from Veteran Owned UK, recognising it as a verified veteran-owned business with governance processes suitable for working with major corporate organisations.
During 2025, Corps Security raised £275,000 for its charity partners, supporting projects focused on the veteran community, local cadet groups and other charitable initiatives.
On the governance side, the company introduced an integrated compliance dashboard that monitors nearly 1,000 legislative requirements in real time. Its ESG Scrutiny Group also supported the achievement of ISO 27001 accreditation and the expansion of mandatory staff training, with 2,156 employees completing anti-bribery training and 934 completing modern slavery awareness training.
Commenting on the report, Mike Bullock, CEO at Corps Security, said: “This report reflects another year in which our commitments have translated into tangible results. We’ve made significant progress towards our environmental targets while championing social value and solidifying our management systems. We are proving that a business can be both traditional in its values and modern in its approach – and that these qualities are entirely complementary.”
