Quest Studio

Rubenshuis wanted to steer climate action on evidence, not a one-off snapshot. Its footprint spans the historic house, the Rubenianum research institute and a newer Experience Center, plus art transport, purchases, waste and visitor travel. Quest built a footprint under the GHG Protocol with an operational-control boundary, reconstructed direct emissions over several years, used museum-specific emission factors, engaged key suppliers and modelled visitor travel. Green electricity is shown in the market-based result while the grid impact is still tracked. The multi-year view showed direct emissions falling thanks to better energy and heating performance, while the measured total grew only because the boundary now includes the value chain.

• Consistent multi-year dataset across scopes 1, 2 and 3
• Downward trend in direct emissions made visible
• Repeatable method and supplier-engagement process

FOMU had set itself the goal of demonstrably reducing its carbon footprint, but lacked a credible baseline. The museum combines exhibitions, offices, a café and a cinema, often behind shared meters, and its impact extends to exhibition materials, international transport of loaned works, purchases, waste and tens of thousands of visitors. Quest calculated FOMU's full 2024 footprint under the GHG Protocol, screened the fifteen scope 3 categories for materiality, converted data in very different units into activity data, engaged the most material suppliers and modelled visitor travel. FOMU now has a solid base year, a prioritised list of reduction levers and a method it can repeat every year.

• Solid 2024 base year under the GHG Protocol
• Prioritised set of reduction levers

An international flooring producer had sustainability initiatives spread across locations, with ownership split over several departments, so management could not align them or communicate about them. Quest benchmarked the company against more than 40 competitors, interviewed 22 employees from 5 departments in 3 countries across 4 product groups, and turned the findings into a visual overview of positive and negative impacts with an action roadmap. The company then added a sustainability page to its website, briefed internal stakeholders, started measuring and reporting more inputs and outputs, and trained employees on sustainable practices.

Allshoes Professional Footwear, a Dutch safety footwear company with the brands Redbrick, Strövels and Mr. Miles, wanted to prove its sustainability commitments in a credible, measurable way and embed them in governance and operations across all its brands. With Quest's B Corp programme, Allshoes became a Certified B Corporation on 7 July 2025, with the certification covering the company and its three brands.

KeyPharm, the company behind Physalis, Biotona and Pureté Bio, asked Quest for guidance towards B Corp certification. Quest built a specific approach for a multi-brand business with a complex structure and supply chain: navigating the assessment, documenting evidence for verification, aligning impact programmes into one improvement roadmap and training the team for life after certification. With leadership, Quest also turned informal local hiring and giving into a public, recurring donation commitment. The target was a score of 90; KeyPharm reached 94.3, and all its brands can use the certification.

Cordeel Group, a Belgian family-owned construction company and major European player, asked Quest for an impact report whose set-up could be reused. Instead of a PDF template, Quest recommended a web format: it used the GRI standards to frame and rewrite the content, designed and developed the site with interactive graphs and flexible content blocks, and added an automatic PDF download. Cordeel can now publish future impact reports on the same template without a new design budget.
