Specialist security provider Corps Security has published its 2026 ESG report, reflecting on its environmental, social and governance performance in 2025. Its highlights include an 18.57% reduction in total carbon footprint, Platinum certification from Neutral Carbon Zone, £275,000 raised for its charity partners, and advanced compliance dashboard monitoring.
Corps’ 18.57% reduction in total carbon emissions marked significant progress towards its 2050 net zero target, with reductions across all three scopes:
- Scope 1 fell to 93.68 tCO2e, a 35.26% reduction from 2024, driven largely by the continued transition of the company’s fleet to electric vehicles.
- Scope 2 emissions fell to 35.91 tCO2e, a 5.40% reduction, following the incorporation of renewable energy tariffs across Corps Security’s properties.
- Scope 3 emissions, which account for most of the total footprint, came to 6,098.49 tCO2e, representing an 18.31% reduction.
Corps was also awarded Platinum certification by Neutral Carbon Zone, the highest tier of its programme, demonstrating that its emissions reporting meets the highest international standards. The company also maintained a Silver rating from its ESG rating provider EcoVadis. Its strongest area was environment, placing it in the top 3% of the security industry.
As a certified social enterprise, Corps continued delivering social impact. It received Corporate Ready certification from Veteran Owned UK, recognising it as a verified veteran-owned organisation with the governance standards to work with major corporate partners. In 2025, Corps also raised £275,000 for its charity partners, fundraising for veteran community initiatives and local cadet groups, and supporting their own charitable work.
Corps has strengthened governance with a new integrated compliance dashboard tracking almost 1,000 legislative items in real time, holding both boardroom and frontline to account. Its cross-functional ESG Scrutiny Group helped deliver ISO 27001 accreditation and expand mandatory training, where 2,156 colleagues completed anti-bribery modules, and 934 completed modern slavery 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.”
