Lucion is a purpose-driven company, dedicated to protecting people from hazardous environments and protecting the environment from the impacts of people. Our name, Luc (to illuminate) / ion (to take action), illustrates our mission, to shed light on hazards and challenges and take action. Through our Group of companies, we facilitate the sustainable development of clients across 12 key sectors worldwide through risk mitigation services. To assist our clients at every stage of their asset lifecycle journey, our Group works as three industry verticals: inspection, providing hazardous material testing data analysis and surveys; assessment, a conductor of physical onsite investigations including geoenvironmental and geotechnical studies; and advisory, offering environmental, sustainability and consultancy services. As a private equity-backed business, we are sustainable, and interesting and continue to grow and push forward to secure our future as a business not only for our investors but for our community of people. The Group signed up for the UN Global Compact in November 2022. With its internationally recognised set of 10 universal principles for good business practice, the international aspect is an important one. The commitment to the UN Global Compact includes providing a corporate disclosure of ESG annually, which we will be completing for the first time in 2023. As we acquire more businesses the integration is a challenge as they adapt to the culture and values of the Group and we have more data to collect, for example across our fleet and property portfolio. We have addressed this by creating roles in these key areas, and understand that having good data and being well informed allows us to make the best choices in the future. It has also enabled us to become a “Beyond Net Zero” business with action plans for carbon emissions reductions.
