Duni Group commits to set Science Based Targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions further

MALMÖ, Sweden, Sept. 20, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Duni Group is taking the next step towards the goal of being a net-zero emissions company by 2050 with defined progress by 2030. Committing to set Science Based Targets (SBT) ensures the work towards further reductions of the Group's greenhouse gas emissions in line with the Paris Climate Agreement. Joining the SBT initiative enables the company's climate work to become more transparent and reviewed by external experts.

By committing to the Science Based Target initiative (SBTi), Duni Group sets even clearer goals for its long-term work to reduce the Group's own, and its supply chain's greenhouse gas emissions. The internationally renowned SBTi is a comprehensive and transparent way to reduce emission levels as the company undertakes to set greenhouse gas emission reduction targets in line with the Paris Agreement of limiting global warming to 1.5°C. The performance will be followed up scientifically, audited by external auditors and validated by SBTi.

"We are happy to announce the next step in our "Decade of Action". Setting Science Based Targets follows the work we have done to reduce our dependency on fossil energy and will enable us to take a full value chain approach in our climate ambitions", says Robert Dackeskog, President and CEO, Duni Group.
