Environmental Impact and Performance

Focus on Climate Neutrality by 2045

We act responsibly and protect the environment by cutting emissions, reducing energy consumption, saving water, and avoiding waste as much as possible. Our Group-wide environmental performance indicators support us in continuously assessing our progress.

Driving the Transformation Forward: Climate Neutrality by 2045

Our environmental performance indicators help us identify areas that require improvement but also enable us to implement and manage effective measures and monitor our progress towards target achievement. We consistently collect, combine, and analyze this data at all of our facilities. By publishing this information on an annual basis in our sustainability report, we offer our internal and external stakeholders a clear and transparent overview of our progress and advancements in emissions, energy, and water management.
