Ausco Modular releases 2025 Sustainability Report
Keeping Resources in Motion
“The future belongs to those who keep resources in motion. Loops within Loops is built to do exactly that.”
Richard Ingram, Interim CEO and Co-Chairman
Ausco Modular, as part of the Modulaire Group, has published its 2025 ESGS Report Keeping Resources in Motion: A Blueprint for a Circular Economy. It’s the Group’s sixth annual report, and the most tangible demonstration yet of what its circular business model, Loops within Loops, looks like when it’s been running at scale for half a decade.
The model in practice
The idea behind Loops within Loops is simple: modular units should be designed to last, refurbished when needed, and redeployed rather than discarded. Every unit that goes back into service is one fewer that ends up as waste - and one less reason to extract virgin materials from a planet that’s increasingly stretched. Across 23 countries, that logic shapes how the Group designs, produces, and operates.
The numbers
Since 2020, Modulaire Group has cut its absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 47%, reduced waste to landfill by 81% per typical unit, and brought water consumption down by 55%. This year, its Net Zero targets were independently validated by the Science Based Targets initiative - confirmation that the decarbonisation roadmap is genuinely aligned with a 1.5°C future, not just pointed in its general direction.
Fleet electrification continues: 32% of cars and vans and 42% of forklifts are now electric. A Responsible Sourcing Handbook, published openly this year, making a call to suppliers to join us.
The bigger picture
There’s a business case here, and it’s a strong one - resilience, cost efficiency, regulatory alignment. But there’s also something more straightforward: resources that stay in use don’t become waste, and waste that doesn’t exist can’t do damage. Six years of data make both arguments harder to ignore.
