Duni Group's science-based targets approved
Duni Group's science-based targets have been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative. Setting science-based targets ensures the work towards further reductions of greenhouse gas emissions in line with the Paris Agreement. This is an important step towards the goal of reaching net-zero across the value chain by 2050.
Using science-based targets is a comprehensive and transparent way for Duni Group to show the long-term work to further reduce greenhouse gases. The performance will be followed-up and communicated externally annually.
Important milestone
"This is an important milestone in becoming our industry's trusted sustainability leader in 2030. To stay relevant in the future, Duni Group is a company in climate action. We want to be a part of the global climate transition”, says Robert Dackeskog, President and CEO, Duni Group.
"Now that we have the data on our greenhouse gas emissions, it allows us to find the hotspots. Knowing our climate impact, we can start conversations about improvements internally, and externally with suppliers and customers across the value chain. That's the power of information – it drives change", says Erik Lindroth, Sustainability Director, Duni Group.
