Direct Lobbying Transparency
Overall Assessment | Comment | Score |
---|---|---|
Limited | Lindab International discloses only high-level information about its climate-policy engagement. It says it participates in “56 trade associations and forums” such as Eurovent, Svensk Ventilation and Passivhaus Trust and states that, “as a European market leader in ventilation, we take responsibility for improving the standard set for indoor climate and making this mandatory for all buildings,” indicating that its primary mechanism is indirect lobbying through industry bodies, but it does not name any government departments, legislators or consultation processes it targets. On policy content, the company notes its involvement with broad initiatives like the EU Green Deal and the Fit for 55 climate package and refers to working on energy-efficiency and building-renovation standards, yet it does not identify any specific directives, regulations or bill numbers it has tried to influence. The goals it pursues are framed in general terms—promoting “sustainable construction,” “healthy indoor climate requirements,” and “harmonised approaches to environmental product declarations”—without spelling out concrete legislative changes, timelines or numerical thresholds it advocates. Overall, the disclosure gives a sense that Lindab is active in shaping building-sector climate policy, but the absence of named policymaking targets, detailed mechanisms or clearly defined outcomes limits the transparency of its lobbying activities. | 1 |
