Sustainability
SBTi-approved targets
Our near-term/ net-zero target has been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This independent validation confirms that our emissions reduction pathway is aligned with the latest climate science and the level of decarbonization required to help limit global warming. It reflects our long-term commitment to responsible manufacturing and supporting more sustainable supply chains for our customers.
Our Sustainability Ambition: Net Zero Carbon Emissions by 2045*
Our near-term carbon emission targets:
Reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 emissions by 55% in fiscal year 32/33 versus 22/23 base year
1 Engage at least 74% of scope 3 suppliers (by spend) to have science-based targets by FY29/30
2
Our long-term net zero target:
Reduce absolute scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions to achieve net zero by 2045

*Our near- and long-term goals are developed based on a carbon dioxide inventory conforming to the GHG Protocol standard and in accordance with the Paris Agreement adopted by the UN.
Reducing our carbon footprint in dextran production
• Reduced water consumption thanks to a cutting-edge integrated water system
• Reduced CO2 emissions thanks to the local sourcing and production of our main ingredient
• 50% of the power consumed at our manufacturing site is sourced from wind and solar energy
Taking part in a circular model
• Recycling production waste into animal feed and biogas
• All of our non-biodegradable waste is sorted before being shipped for recycling or incineration for energy production
Designing eco-friendly products
• No organic solvents are used in our production
• Utilizes green chemistry principles
