The Un Global Compact is a voluntary initiative that encourages businesses worldwide to align their operations and strategies with ten universally accepted principles in areas such as human rights, labour standards, environmental sustainability, and anti-corruption. By adhering to the UN Global Compact, we commit to upholding these principles and improving our practices, fostering greater corporate responsibility and sustainable development. With the Global Compact Network, we participated in the Climate Ambition Accelerator, a six-month programme that provides companies with the knowledge and tools needed to fast-track their efforts in setting science-based emissions reduction targets aligned with the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C pathway, guiding them towards achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
The Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is a global body that helps companies set robust, actionable, and measurable greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction targets aligned with the Paris Agreement's ambitious target of limiting global warming below 1.5C° and the Net Zero by 2050 goal. The Target Dashboard shows which companies have committed to setting science-based targets and which have already had their targets approved.
We are proud to share that, in May 2025, our targets have been verified by SBTi, confirming our commitment to drastically reduce our emissions across the value chain and remove from the atmosphere an amount of CO2 equal to any remaining emissions by 2050. Below are the targets, with baseline 2022:
Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions: 44.8% reduction by 2030; 90% reduction by 2050.
Scope 3 emissions: 51.6% reduction per U.S. dollar of revenue by 2030; 97% reduction per U.S. dollar of revenue by 2050.
