At Lluch Essence we understand that sustainability cannot be managed without a clear understanding of what issues are truly relevant to our activity and to those who are affected by it. That is why, in line with the most recent European regulations, we apply the principle of Dual Materiality, as established in Article 29b of Directive 2013/34/EU, as amended by the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).
This dual approach allows us to analyze sustainability issues from two complementary perspectives:
Through this analysis, we identify, assess and disclose our impacts, risks and opportunities (IROs) in a structured and transparent manner, following the provisions of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/2772 and EFRAG IG 1 Guidance on Materiality Assessment.
The methodology used by Lluch Essence contemplates the three levels of analysis established by ESRS 1: issues, sub-issues and sub-sub-issues. In all cases, an issue is considered material if it contains at least one IRO classified as such. If no material IROs are identified in a subtopic or sub-subtopic, it is considered non-material as a whole.
Thanks to this rigorous assessment, aligned with international best practices, we can focus our efforts on those aspects where our impact is most significant and where our decisions can generate real change, thus contributing to a more sustainable, inclusive and resilient economy.
