Focus on ESG and CSRD: future-proof reporting

In the annual reports, significant attention has been paid to the extensive ESG (Environmental, Social & Governance) chapter. In doing so, Melexis anticipates the upcoming requirements of the CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) guidelines, which make transparency, impact, and future-proofing increasingly important in corporate reporting.

By presenting sustainability not as a separate appendix, but as an integral part of the business strategy, Melexis demonstrates how technology and social responsibility can go hand in hand.

Our approach: more than just design

For Melexis, we developed a strong and recognizable corporate design, in which their existing corporate identity has been translated into a complete and distinctive editorial concept.

We provided:

• Clear and consistent layouts for tables, charts, and infographics.
• A powerful visual translation of complex ESG data into accessible storytelling.
• Full integration into the Workiva platform for smooth and dynamic digital reporting.
• Full integration into the Workiva platform for smooth and dynamic digital reporting.
• Custom infographics that provide insight into complex themes in a visually attractive and intuitive way, allowing stakeholders to understand the key messages quickly and clearly.

By allowing design and content to work closely together, a report is created that not only informs but also inspires – true impact communication in practice.

Why this approach works

In a time when sustainability and transparency are central, stakeholders—from investors to employees—are asking for credible stories. A good annual report builds trust and strengthens the brand.

Our approach focuses on:

• Connecting story and strategy: ESG themes are not presented in isolation, but embedded within the entirety of the mission, vision, and core activities.
• Making information accessible: Through infographics and smart layout, complex information becomes understandable and engaging.
• Digital flexibility: Thanks to Workiva, a dynamic document is created that can be easily modified and shared.

Your annual report as a strategic communication tool
An annual report is no longer just a formality. It is a powerful instrument for impact communication: a way to show who you are, what you stand for, and what contribution you make to a more sustainable future. Especially now that regulations such as the CSRD increasingly demand transparency, a clear, visually strong, and well-structured report becomes essential.

At Mattmo Creative, we guide organizations with:

• Development of corporate and sustainability reports
• Design of visual storytelling, infographics, and data visualizations
• Integration of reports into platforms such as Workiva for optimal digital distribution
• Creatieve strategie en contentontwikkeling rondom ESG en impactcommunicatie

Sustainable reporting in a changing world

The energy sector is changing rapidly. As a leading player in offshore wind foundations, Sif contributes to accelerating the sustainable energy transition. This contribution requires transparent, accessible reporting that clearly illustrates both impact and performance.

For the setup and publication of the annual report, Sif chose the Workiva platform – a leading solution for integrated digital reporting. Within this environment, data, text, and visuals can work together seamlessly, which is essential for transparency, consistency, and compliance with, among others, the CSRD guidelines (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive). As a certified Workiva partner, Mattmo guided this process from strategy to delivery.

Our approach: more than design

We developed an enriched and user-friendly document, fully aligned with Sif’s visual identity. We designed clear navigation and structured indexes to make the reading experience more intuitive and organized. Additionally, we created entirely new infographics that provide insight into complex performance, goals, and impact in a visually powerful way. We also developed a clear value chain in which Sif’s role within the offshore wind industry is presented visibly and understandably. Finally, we brought together the key results of the year in visual highlight pages so they are accessible at a glance.

By cleverly connecting content, form, and structure, a report is created that not only informs but also inspires — true impact communication.

Infographics that make strategy and performance tangible

In the new report, specially developed custom infographics provide visual insight into the sustainable strategy, production processes, and goal achievement. By translating complex themes visually, not only is readability enhanced, but reader engagement is also strengthened.

Strong visual storytelling plays a key role in the way Sif tells its story: transparent, understandable, and focused on the future.

Why this approach works

In a time when stakeholders are scrutinizing sustainability and social responsibility increasingly critically, an annual report is much more than a collection of figures. It is a powerful communication tool through which organizations make their vision, strategy, and impact visible.

Our approach at Mattmo combines narrative power — in which strategic and sustainable goals are translated into clear and credible stories — with visual accessibility, where infographics and smart layouts make complex data understandable and engaging. Furthermore, digital flexibility thanks to Workiva ensures a dynamic, future-proof reporting process.

Annual report as a strategic instrument

A good annual report does more than inform: it strengthens your brand, builds trust, and demonstrates your contribution to the future.

At Mattmo Creative, we guide organizations in the development of annual reports and sustainability reports that meet CSRD requirements. We design powerful visual storytelling, infographics, and data visualizations, and ensure the integration of reports within digital environments such as Workiva. Additionally, we develop creative strategies and content focused on sustainable impact communication.

In this report, Basic-Fit demonstrates how it continues to promote its mission ‘make fitness available to everyone in Europe’, with a strong focus on growth, accessibility, and social impact.

Visual power aligned with brand identity

In line with Basic-Fit’s corporate identity, we brought their story to life through clear tables, graphs, and infographics. Various visual elements, such as the value creation model, impact overviews, and sustainability infographics, make complex information accessible and engaging.

In the design of the report, we combined improved readability with optimized typography, extra space for short copy, and separate sections for storytelling. The result is a report that not only informs but also inspires and strengthens the brand experience.

Specifically for the 2024 edition, we once again provided:

• the design and graphic concept,
• production in the Tangelo environment,
• the development of new infographics,
• and board photography to portray the leadership team authentically and professionally.

The close alignment between design and brand identity results in an annual report that perfectly reflects Basic-Fit’s dynamism and accessibility.

Smart production in Tangelo

The content of the annual report is collected and managed via our partner Tangelo’s platform. This makes the process efficient: changes can be implemented, reviewed, and published quickly, without compromising quality and consistency.

Thanks to this method, the report meets all requirements for data integrity and transparency. Moreover, an ESEF (European Single Electronic Format) version can be easily produced, enabling Basic-Fit to fully comply with European reporting guidelines.

Continuity and development

The collaboration between Mattmo and Basic-Fit is built on continuity, trust, and joint development. Every year, we improve the visual presentation together, strengthen the narrative structure, and ensure that the reporting aligns with the latest trends in design, digitalization, and reporting.

Our collaboration proves that an annual report is not only an obligation but also a strategic communication tool: a way to make brand values ​​visible, increase engagement, and achieve a broader impact.

Your annual report as a brand experience

At Mattmo Creative, we believe that annual reports are powerful communication tools that allow organizations to make their identity and ambitions visible.
We support organizations in developing annual reports that are visually strong, strategically sound, and perfectly aligned with the brand’s core values.

Whether it concerns report production within a Tangelo environment, board photography, infographics, ESG communication, or storytelling: we help you produce a report that not only informs but inspires.

Mattmo developed this infographic in close collaboration with PostNL as part of its annual report production. However, the infographic is designed to be used in conversations with job applicants, the press, financiers, and other stakeholders to clarify how PostNL’s value chain is structured.

A complex assignment: mapping the value chain
Visualizing a value chain is not a simple task. The infographic must convey several things:

• PostNL’s upstream value chain, including hiring of personnel, deployment of transport assets, data, and partnerships.
• PostNL’s own operations and processes, traditional mail, parcels, and e-commerce. These are offered both physically and increasingly digitally and via the cloud.
• The downstream value chain with PostNL’s customers and ‘beyond customers’, but also other stakeholders, including shareholders and society.

All these elements had to be recognizable, coherent, and visible in the correct order — without overwhelming the reader with complexity. The metaphor of a road was chosen to effectively visualize all relevant items.

“We were looking for a way to visualize in a single coherent image how our value chain relates to the impacts, risks, and opportunities we identified from our dual materiality analysis. Mattmo assembled a multidisciplinary team consisting of a sustainability expert, communications strategist, and designer, and in a number of sessions, we managed to translate that abstract story into a visual that makes it understandable and recognizable to our stakeholders.”
– Willem Wassink

Why this infographic works so well

Why this infographic works so well
What makes this infographic special is the combination of simplicity and completeness.
With a smart layered structure, it is clearly displayed:

• Which sources and resources form the basis
• How PostNL’s core activities add value
• What outcomes and effects that produces, both financial and societal

Thanks to visual hierarchy, use of color, and clear iconography, the infographic is intuitively readable. At a glance, it becomes clear how PostNL interacts with its suppliers, customers, and other stakeholders — from mail and parcel delivery, e-commerce, and digital services to social engagement and sustainability.

From strategic themes to societal impact

The infographic maps not only the logistics chain, but also broader themes such as:

• Sustainability (for example CO₂ reduction and sustainable urban logistics)
• Digital transformation
• Customer focus and innovation
• Responsible employership and diversity

In this way, the picture bridges the gap between operational activities and strategic ambitions, something that is precisely lacking in many traditional annual reports.

The power of visual storytelling in annual reports

More and more organizations want to not only present data in their reporting, but also tell their story visually.
Infographics like this value creation map make complex strategies accessible to a broad audience: from investors and analysts to employees and societal stakeholders.

At Mattmo we believe that good visual storytelling is indispensable in modern corporate communication. A strong infographic makes connections visible, invites depth and increases involvement with the content.

With powerful infographics and a streamlined publication in Tangelo, complex information was presented in an accessible and clear manner — enabling stakeholders to quickly gain insight into the key developments.

Infographics and visual storytelling as key

For OCI, we made complex information insightful and visually appealing. We developed a series of powerful infographics, including a clear and coherent value chain, which clearly illustrates key business processes and sustainability initiatives.

By translating abstract themes into clear visuals, we support the readability of the report and strengthen the way in which strategic themes are made accessible to various target groups.

The annual report was developed within a Tangelo environment, enabling us to realize a streamlined process of content management, visual production, and publication. This approach made the collaboration efficient, with room for flexibility and quick coordination.

An intensive and inspiring collaboration

Collaborating on the OCI annual report meant close coordination, creative thinking, and a keen eye for detail.
In collaboration with OCI’s ESG team, we supported the visual and communicative translation of complex information into a consistent and clear report.

The open collaboration enabled us to create high-quality visualizations that contribute to the clear presentation of OCI’s progress on sustainability and strategic initiatives.

Our role in the project

Our contribution consisted of several parts.
We developed the visual structure of the report, designed infographics and data visualizations, shaped the value chain, and handled production supervision and publication via the Tangelo environment.

Our focus was on:

• creating accessible visualizations of complex ESG and business data,
• facilitating a smooth update and correction cycle within Tangelo,
• supporting the communication of strategic themes through visual means,
• and maintaining a consistent and recognizable visual identity within the annual report.

Why this approach works

In a time when transparency and sustainability are becoming increasingly important, the role of annual reports as a communication tool towards investors, employees, and other stakeholders is growing.

Visual support makes complex content more accessible, increases engagement, and helps reinforce the message.
With a well-designed annual report, an organization can demonstrate how it responds to changing markets and societal expectations.

At Mattmo, we believe that strong visual communication has the power to make strategies more understandable and inspiring.

Your annual report as the communication tool of the future

Are you working on your annual report or ESG reporting?

Fagron faced the challenge of updating its annual report in preparation for CSRD, migrating from a portrait to a landscape format without losing its recognizable brand identity. The newly selected CMS from Tangelo required customized templates. Additionally, there was a need for better clarity in the infographics and optimization of the report’s navigation. This required a careful approach to ensure both visual appeal and user-friendliness.

Solution

Mattmo adopted a holistic approach to address these challenges. First, Fagron’s brand identity was thoroughly analyzed, and then a landscape format design optimized for online use was created. Clear instructions were shared with the tool provider, and the design was implemented in the CMS.
Special attention was given to the infographics, which were redesigned for clarity. Now, the value chain and value creation model are presented more clearly. An intuitive navigation structure was developed, enabling users to easily browse the report and quickly find the desired information.

Result

The revamped annual report of Fagron, supported by Mattmo, is not only more visually appealing but also more user-friendly. The migration to the landscape format was successfully executed while retaining the core brand identity. The improved infographics provide a clearer and more attractive presentation of the models, and the optimized navigation offers users a smooth reading experience. As a result, Fagron has an annual report that meets the highest standards in both functionality and aesthetics.

A set of interactive graphs allows comparison of all results over several years.

Strong visual stories put PostNL’s strategy and results in context: they show the role and impact of the company on our daily lives.

And from the report you can easily navigate back to the story.

A multitude of media and online functionalities have been used to make the report functional, attractive and accessible. For example, the message from CEO Herna Verhagen is contained in 3 inspiring short films about the strategy, culture and people of the company. CFO Jan Bos expresses the company’s core results in a short, attractive video. The videos can be immediately shared via social media: Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. An interactive glossary provides immediate explanation of the concepts used. Clear, beautifully designed infographics make the content of the report clear and attractively readable.

PostNL focuses on all stakeholders, showing that they are future-proof, a solid partner, and contribute to our daily lives.

Our annual report concept for PostNL was developed over three years. It offered PostNL the opportunity to show that they are here to stay and are a force to be reckoned with. The rich media content puts their strategy and results in context for all stakeholders. Working with Mattmo has enabled the company to combine production and financial content with attractive and appealing design.

Europe’s largest animal nutrition company, ForFarmers from Lochem, was looking for a solution for more efficient production of its annual report. In 2014, she found Mattmo to be an appealing combination of tooling, design and the ability to produce online (multi-channel). Mattmo enriched ForFarmers’ existing design, so that there are many more options for presenting the annual report in a clear and attractive way. Both online and in print form. The new design also included a new photography style, clear infographs. The fully responsive design allows readers to view the website on large screens, tablets and smartphones.

A new visual style has been developed for the reports for 2014, 2015 and 2016 that fits the ambitions, the IPO and the European strength of the company. The framework was set up in 2014. A series of pictograms were developed in 2015 that were also used in the company’s presentations for the IPO at the end of May 2016. View the 2016 annual report

By feeding back energy, a customer can now become a producer. In addition, there is an increasing dialogue between consumers and producers. To respond to this, Mattmo renewed the communication strategy. The challenging process of creating an annual report could be streamlined. Mattmo sees an annual report as a strategic communication tool.

The annual report won the prestigious Red Dot Award

The concept that Mattmo devised for Essent’s annual report is based on the theme of dialogue.

De dialoog heeft de democratisering van energie als gevolg. Alle teksten en financiële data worden, handmatig of gedigitaliseerd, in ART ingevoerd. Vervolgens komen de gegevens in juiste opmaak op het scherm, zowel voor het drukwerk als voor de digitale-versie. Na een analyse van de energiemarkt, werd er een nieuwe tendens waargenomen. Zonne-energie en windmolens hebben van de klant ook producent gemaakt. Als gevolg is een dialoog ontstaan tussen producent en consument. En dat is het thema dat wij voor het jaarverslag kozen.

Working with ART has simplified and made the annual report production process for Essent more manageable.

Mattmo created three books for Essent: annual accounts, an annual report and a CSR report.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a spearhead for Essent. Essent pays a lot of attention to making the energy market more sustainable. The strategic importance of the annual report was great, because Essent was for sale at the time and was later purchased by RWE. The design was awarded a Red Dot Design Award.

Mattmo heeft na deze productie nog drie jaren het MVO verslag gecreëerd.

She divested herself of her retail real estate and rationalized her team of employees. This new course required a new working method for the production of the annual report. Being better in control was an explicit wish.

There was also a need for more explanation of the strategy using storytelling and infographics. NSI’s strategy to be the leading specialist in the Dutch office market is threefold. This is achieved through asset rotation and portfolio expansion, the best organizational platform and optimization of balance sheet ratios.

Three interviews provide a picture of the way in which employees contribute to realizing the strategy.

For example, the head of acquisition explains how he still manages to close lucrative deals in a tense, rising market.
In a second interview it is described how the head of asset management achieves maximum returns on existing real estate through process optimization and relationship management, among other things.
Finally, an interview with emerging talent at NSI reports on how they become acquainted with the many facets of the real estate profession and their appreciation for NSI’s young talent program.
