Tomorrow, we will all drive e-Vs and surf the internet at unprecedented speeds. If we want to create a future-ready society in Belgium and the Netherlands, there is only one option: we must embrace innovative technologies. This leap forward begins with vital infrastructure. And this in both rural areas and mega-cities such as Brussels and Amsterdam. Following a distinctly local approach, our people seek to improve the society in which they and their families live. These efforts are driven by three ambitions. ![Icon 1](https://esg.circet-benelux.eu/hubfs/Icon%201.svg "Icon 1") ### Protecting our natural environment More and more every year, we are noticing the effects of climate change, also in our region. Extreme weather conditions such as droughts and floods, for example. In this respect, the vision of Circet Benelux is clear: we want to do what science says is necessary to turn the tide. That is why we are aiming for a drastic reduction in our CO2 emissions, while also focusing on greener buildings and smarter resource management.

In addition, we aim for our team to be healthy, satisfied and diverse above all. A team where people can do what they like and do well. Our support goes a long way: by enriching ourselves, we also improve the lives of those around us.

It is the guiding principle for decision-making, within our company walls as well as on site. The result is that we do what we say and always act correctly, openly and in a concerted manner. Which, by the way, is what we expect from everyone in our network. Finally, we keep all (online) data safe and respect everyone’s privacy.

They help us identify and assess the most relevant social and environmental challenges, enabling us to determine where we can make the greatest impact. ![Patrick Block](https://esg.circet-benelux.eu/hubfs/Patrick%20Block.jpg) **“If you still want to be relevant in 5 or 10 years, you have to focus on sustainability. But there also lies a risk. If you only see sustainability as an obligation or an extra, you will eventually still fall by the wayside. We therefore opt for a strategy that is based on sustainability. Circet Benelux must and wants to reinvent itself to make a positive impact locally.”** ##### Patrick Block Chief Transformation Officer & ESG Lead ## Articles in the spotlight [![Sustainable deployment of fiber: Eurofiber and Circet test their first electric construction site](https://esg.circet-benelux.eu/hs-fs/hubfs/Eurofiber_Circet_Asse.png?width=300&name=Eurofiber_Circet_Asse.png)](https://news.circet-benelux.eu/en/emissie-loze-werf-eurofiber-asse?hsLang=en) ###### [Fixed Networks,](https://news.circet-benelux.eu/en/tag/fixed-networks?hsLang=en)[Esg](https://news.circet-benelux.eu/en/tag/esg?hsLang=en) ### [Sustainable deployment of fiber: Eurofiber and Circet test their first electric construction site](https://news.circet-benelux.eu/en/emissie-loze-werf-eurofiber-asse?hsLang=en) 17 Nov 2025 The rollout of fiber optics is moving at lightning speed, but even within this digital acceleration...
