We help insurers and their customers reduce the environmental impact of property claims while controlling costs.

The insurance industry has set ambitious goals for achieving net-zero carbon emissions, but many organisations don’t know what they need to do to get there. Sedgwick is here to help.

Carbon value calculator
We demonstrate financial and carbon savings using our carbon value calculator, which quantifies the environmental impact of each property claim and its related repairs by applying CO2 values to materials, labour and plant. The tool also measures and reports the impact across a client’s portfolio of repairs. By providing a baseline for current emissions and instantly calculating the potential impact of greener materials and processes, we empower clients to make informed decisions about their claims handling philosophies and evaluate practical changes to their suppliers and standards. Our carbon value calculator provides the financial and environmental context needed to help clients develop low-carbon policies and appreciate the potential impact of greener alternatives.
