Sustainability Report Design Agency Dubai.
An ESG report only works if the data is easy to read and the document carries the weight of what it reports. That job is ours, from the writing through to the final files. Walk Production designs sustainability and ESG reports for DFM- and ADX-listed PJSCs, large organizations, and multinationals across the UAE. Where you need consulting, from materiality assessment to framework compliance, we bring in our panel of partner consultants, or work alongside the advisers you already have.
We have built ESG reports across industries since 2018, turning targets and performance data into pages that investors, customers, and regulators can follow. In the UAE this matters more each year: the UAE Capital Market Authority (CMA, formerly the Securities and Commodities Authority) requires DFM- and ADX-listed PJSCs to publish an annual sustainability report, and the DFM ESG Reporting Guide, the ADX ESG Disclosure Guidance, and Federal Decree-Law No. 11 of 2024, the UAE climate law, now set the bar for what credible disclosure looks like.
UAE public joint stock companies listed on DFM or ADX are required by the Capital Market Authority to publish an annual sustainability report. Walk Production writes and designs it: layout, data visualization, print-ready files, and interactive PDF. Consulting is delivered with our partner consultant panel. Audit, independent assurance, and legal advice stay with your appointed providers.

Sustainability report
services.
Our remit runs from the writing to the final files, and consulting is available through our panel of partner consultants. If you already have reporting advisers, we slot in beside them. Either way, one account team carries the report from kickoff to handoff.
01 Sustainability Consulting
Full consulting for the reporting cycle, delivered with our panel of partner consultants and run by Walk Production as one engagement. We are open about how this works: specialist partners carry the consulting, and our in-house team writes, designs, and produces the report around it.
Deliverables
- Materiality assessment
- Stakeholder engagement
- Data collection frameworks
- Framework selection and compliance support
- GRI content index development
- Assurance coordination
02 Layout Design
A sustainability report is long and dense, so structure does the heavy lifting. Our designers build a clear hierarchy across covers, sections, and spreads that walks the reader through your ESG story instead of leaving them to dig for it.
Deliverables
- Full report layout design
- Cover and section design
- Typography and visual hierarchy
- Print and digital specifications
03 Data Visualization
Emissions tables, energy figures, and social metrics rarely speak for themselves. Working from the verified data your team or advisers hand over, we turn those numbers into infographics and charts that make ESG performance quick to grasp.
Deliverables
- ESG performance infographics
- Emissions and energy charts
- Social impact visualization
- Year-on-year comparison graphics
04 Translation
When the report runs in more than one language, often English and Arabic, we set each version and coordinate the typesetting and proofreading so the two read as one consistent document rather than two near-matches.
Deliverables
- Bilingual layout coordination
- Typesetting in both languages
- Consistent visual presentation
- Terminology consistency checking
05 Client Image Preparation
Photographs of your actual environmental and social programs carry more weight than stock visuals. We select, edit, and retouch the operational and initiative imagery you supply or approve so the report shows real evidence behind the claims. Where new photography is needed, facility and operations shoots can be arranged with UAE-based photography partners, included where scoped and confirmed in the proposal.
Deliverables
- Environmental initiative image curation
- Social program documentation
- Facility and operations image curation
- Image editing and retouching
06 Print File Handoff
For the printed run, we prepare the artwork and recommend paper stocks that fit your sustainability commitments rather than working against them. Walk Production can manage that print stage directly with UAE-based print-production partners, from paper selection through proofing to delivery, or supply the files to your own appointed printer. Print production is included where scoped and confirmed in the proposal, and we stay available to the vendor for any file or spec question.
Deliverables
- Eco-friendly paper specifications
- Print-ready PDF/X-1a artwork
- Color proofing files for your vendor
- Vendor liaison on file and spec questions
07 Interactive PDF
The online version gets built as an interactive PDF with navigation, hyperlinks, and fully searchable text. It meets online publication expectations and lets stakeholders jump straight to the disclosure they came for.
Deliverables
- Interactive navigation and bookmarks
- Content index hyperlinks
- Searchable text
- Accessibility features

design process.
Our design process coordinates with your content development timeline. Total timeline: 6 to 12 weeks (content-dependent).
01
Kickoff & Planning
We start with your team and the consultant on the project to pin down the report structure, the framework in play, and the deadline. That consultant can be one you appointed or one we bring in from our partner panel, and either way the kickoff runs as a single meeting. From there we slot our writing and design milestones into the reporting calendar.
- Project brief
- Report framework
- Project milestones
02
Concept Development
We then set the visual direction: the layout approach and how the data will be drawn. You approve that concept before any detailed design begins, so the look is agreed before the build.
- Design concepts
- Cover design
- Visualization style
03
Layout Design
ESG content tends to arrive in waves, so we work in phases, drafting and designing each section as the consultant on the project confirms the data behind it, and building the data visualization in step with the layout rather than after it.
- Layout design
- Typesetting
- Data visualization
04
Print File Handoff
To close, we hand print-ready artwork to your appointed printer, finish the interactive PDF for digital sharing, and stay on hand for vendor file questions, all timed to your launch.
- Print-ready files
- Interactive PDF
- Vendor support
How we work with
the consultant.
Some clients arrive with reporting advisers already driving the compliance side. Others need the consulting covered too, and for that we bring in our panel of partner consultants and run both sides as one engagement. Because each side knows exactly what it owns from kickoff, the work moves without overlap or gaps.

Framework
adaptability.
Whatever framework the consultant on your project chooses, we build to it. They confirm the data, disclosures, and compliance; we write the content and turn the structure they confirm into a finished report and final files.
01 Disclosure & Index Layouts
We lay out the standard disclosure tables and content indexes that frameworks call for, formatting them around the disclosures the consultant on the project confirms.
02 Reporting Framework Layouts
Our layouts handle the frameworks UAE issuers reach for most, including GRI, the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards (S1 and S2), and TCFD-aligned structures, following the content order your reporting team confirms.
03 Integrated Reporting
Where financial and sustainability reporting come together in one document, we design the combined narrative so strategy, governance, and ESG read as a single connected story.
04 Other Frameworks
Working to a framework not listed here? Send us the structure the consultant on your project specifies, yours or one from our panel, and we write and design to it. The approach flexes to fit whatever standard your report follows.

Why brands
choose us.
Design Specialists
Writing, visual design, and final files are the core of the job. The consultant on the project confirms the data, disclosures, and compliance, and we make sure the result reads clearly for the people who pick it up.
Data Visualization Capability
These reports live and die on data, and a wall of figures helps no one. Our designers turn dense ESG metrics into infographics and charts that a stakeholder can read in seconds.
Consulting Coverage
We work with the advisers you have appointed, or bring in a consultant from our partner panel when the consulting needs covering. Team members hold GRI Certified Sustainability Professional certification, so the handover between both sides moves quickly.
Timeline Reliability
Disclosure deadlines do not move. Walk Production keeps writing, design, and production aligned to the content timeline the consultant on the project is working to, so the report lands when it has to.
Sustainability report design
questions.
Yes, both. The writing and design sit with our in-house team, and team members hold GRI Certified Sustainability Professional certification. The consulting side covers materiality assessment, data collection, and framework compliance, and it is delivered with our panel of partner consultants. We are open about that split, and we run the whole engagement as one team.
Yes. The call sits with the consultant on your project, and that can be an adviser you appointed or one from our partner panel. They weigh your industry, your stakeholders, and the rules you report under. For DFM- and ADX-listed companies the DFM ESG Reporting Guide and ADX ESG Disclosure Guidance are the usual reference points. Once the framework is set, we write and design to it.
Yes. Walk Production has designed many GRI-structured reports over the years, and team members hold GRI Certified Sustainability Professional certification. The compliance behind the content sits with the consultant on the project. We write and present that content cleanly on the page.
Yes, and Walk Production usually does. We liaise straight with your appointed advisers on content handover, review cycles, and timeline alignment. It is how most of these projects run, so the arrangement is well worn for us.
Your sustainability data and performance metrics, assembled by your internal team or the consultant on the project. If you have no advisers in place, we can scope the data collection and materiality work through our partner panel. Our writers draft the report, and Walk Production takes the visual design and the final files from there.
It hinges on content readiness. Once the content is in hand, Walk Production runs the design in 6 to 12 weeks depending on the package and how complex the report is. Opening the design conversation early is the surest way to keep the timelines aligned.
Yes. Public joint stock companies listed on DFM or ADX are required by the UAE Capital Market Authority (CMA) to publish an annual sustainability report, and both exchanges have issued ESG disclosure guidance. The UAE Climate Law, Federal Decree-Law No. 11 of 2024, adds greenhouse-gas measurement and reporting duties for many organizations. We write and design the report, and where the consulting is not already covered we bring in a consultant from our partner panel.
