Essity committed to reduce its impact on Environment
- Essity’s strategic objective is to contribute to a sustainable and circular society. We are committed to develop targets to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 at the latest.
- By committing to setting targets in line with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), we ensure that our low-carbon transformation is aligned with climate science. We have joined the U.N. Global Compact’s “Business Ambition for 1.5°C”, which includes an upgraded target in line with “Well-below 2°C” scenario and means the Essity commits to reducing its Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions with 35% by 2030 from 2016 in line with Science Based Targets initiative criteria.
- Essity will reach the net-zero target and reduce its environmental impact by increased focus on energy efficiency, removal of fossil fuels, and increased use of renewable energy.
- In 2020 we reduced the greenhouse gas emissions from Scope 1 and Scope 2 by -11% and for Scope 3 by 4%. Emissions for Scope 3 are calculated using data from the company´s value chain and Essity therefore presents data from 2019. Learn more
