What's important to us
We don’t just want to do the right thing; we want to make a difference.
Beyond books and content, Kogan Page is dedicated to making a positive impact on society and the environment. We are consistently working in line with best practice guidelines, or taking initiative when guidelines aren’t available, and monitoring our efforts to see where we can further improve.
Sustainability
Our commitment to sustainability covers a wide range of social and economic activities.
We are proud to have partnered with Carbon Neutral Britain to calculate and offset Kogan Page Ltd's carbon footprint. In July 2021, our internal efforts led us to become certified as a Carbon Neutral Business. But it’s not just about our practices, we also partner with suppliers and vendors who follow sustainability guidelines and processes.

To this end, Kogan Page follows the accessibility guidelines published by the World Wide Web Consortium with the long-term aim of conforming to Level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1.
