Sustainability isn’t just for big companies anymore. SMEs are being asked to show what they’re doing for the environment, their people, and the wider world. A good story is no longer enough; it means transparent, reliable reporting. That’s why more businesses are choosing the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). The most widely used ESG reporting framework in the world. In July 2025, the United Nations officially recognised GRI as the global standard for sustainability reporting. Using Eevery? Then you’re on the right track. Our ESG tool is officially GRI-certified. In this blog, you’ll learn what that means, what’s changed recently, and how you can take action today.

VSME is the new European standard for sustainability reporting. Simple, voluntary, and designed specifically for small and medium-sized enterprises that want to become more sustainable. But without the time, budget, or appetite for thick reports or expensive consultants. At Eevery, we've developed the perfect solution: the VSME Reporting Tool. A user-friendly tool that helps you measure where you stand and instantly generates a professional report. Ideal for business owners who take sustainability seriously. Whether it's for your customers, banks, supply chain partners, or simply for yourself.

We’re proud to share that Damen Shiprepair has launched a sustainability pilot together with Eevery. In this pilot, we’re helping Damen to further improve the sustainability of their supply chain. It’s a powerful example of how a major player can actively support its suppliers in transitioning towards more sustainable business practices. In the latest episode of the PIM Noord-Holland podcast, Wouter Veldhuijzen (Damen) and Michiel Slinkert (Eevery) explain how this partnership came to life.

Cleaning is often viewed as a practical, necessary task with minimal impact on sustainability. However, this service plays a crucial role not only in the appearance of a building, but also in the well-being of the people who work there every day, as well as its broader impact on the environment. Their work is sometimes unnoticed, but cleaners are essential for a healthy, safe and sustainable work environment. In this blog, we put them in the spotlight and highlight their significant contribution to the social, governance, and environmental aspects of sustainability (ESG).

Professional Cleaning Services (PCS) help to keep our environment clean, healthy, and safe every day. At the same time, the sector also affects people and the planet. For example, through transport emissions, material use, waste streams, and the work of thousands of employees from diverse backgrounds. That’s why sustainability is becoming more important. Customers ask for it, employees expect it, and new rules make it a must.

Sustainability reporting may seem like something only large companies need to worry about, but that’s far from the truth. Demand for transparency is growing across the SME sector. In this article, we explain why VSME reporting can be a strategic advantage for small and mid-sized businesses and how to apply it simply and effectively in your business.

Sustainability reporting is becoming increasingly important in the business world. Many companies have spent time and effort preparing for the requirements of the CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive). However, new proposals are now on the table that could significantly limit the scope of this legislation for mid-sized businesses. This raises important questions: what exactly is changing? And how can businesses adapt while maintaining transparency in the growing ESG landscape?

Sustainability reporting in Europe is being reshaped. Initially, thousands of mid-sized companies were set to fall under the CSRD reporting obligation from 2026, but the EU has now significantly relaxed these rules. Does this mean these companies no longer need to be accountable for their sustainability efforts? Not at all. Large companies will still be required to report and will continue to request ESG data from their suppliers. This makes VSME the new standard for businesses that want to remain transparent without the heavy burden of CSRD compliance. This blog explains VSME and why now is the right time to embrace it as a strategic choice.

The European Union recently granted businesses an additional year to prepare for the EUDR legislation focused on deforestation-free products. California also gave companies more time to comply with new climate reporting regulations. While these extensions provide businesses with some breathing space, they also highlight the complexity of these rules, particularly for smaller companies. However, the core message remains clear: tackling climate change requires collective action and collaboration. In this blog, we discuss the sustainability regulations coming into effect in 2025 and how your business can comply while making a positive impact.
