  • Program for energy-efficiency enhancement has been
    initiated at every production unit
  • Increased use of renewable energy
  • Total carbon emissions from production: 2,509 tons CO2e*
  • Share of renewable energy: 42%
  • CO2 emissions in relation to production area: 0.05 (CO2e*/m2)
  • Two production units have transitioned to 100% renewable electricity
Vehicles (Scope 1)    
  • Reduce carbon emissions from production by 50% (equivalent to 22,000 tons CO2e*, baseline 2019) by 2030
  • Gradual transition to low emission vehicles 
  • Improved calculation method for CO2e* emission using the GHG protocol tool as calculation tool and method.
  • Total carbon emissions from vehicles: 22,000 tons CO2e*
  • Average emission for passenger cars and vans: 178 g CO2e*/km
Transport (Scope 3)    
  • Reduce carbon emissions from transportation by 50% (equivalent to 41,000 tons CO2e*, baseline 2019) by 2030
  • Increased efficiency through consolidation of customer deliveries
  • Continued collaboration with suppliers to reduce carbon emissions
  • Enhanced fill rate in transportation
  • Total carbon emissions from transports: 45,200 tons CO2e*

  • Reduce environmental impact from non-recyclable waste (hazardous and non-hazardous) by 50% (baseline 2021, 495 tons) by 2030
  • Waste management improved through the use of the waste hierarchy principle based on the strategy to minimize, reuse and recycle material
  • Improvement project for waste reduction
  • Total waste from production: 1,218 tons
  • Non-recyclable production waste in relation to total production waste: 40% (495 tons)
  • Total hazardous waste in relation to total production waste: 3% (38 tons)
