OUR ROAD TO CARBON NEUTRALITY

“We’ve got you covered” is not just about having the right product for you. It’s about doing the right thing in the most sustainable way. That is why Ascorium develops products, technologies and processes for a cleaner, safer and more comfortable environment.

OUR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS

In order to achieve this overall goal, Ascorium focuses primarily on the following three Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs:

We create robust infrastructure, encourage inclusive, sustainable industrialization, and drive innovation.

Specifically this means that all our new product developments are based on increased recycled and bio content, and are targeting applications where lower weight and lower carbon footprint is key. (SDG 9)

We promote sustainable consumption and production.

In concrete terms: We develop technology focusing on less material usage, e. g. Direct Back Moulding (DBM), weight reduction such as in CompoLite, and more sustainable logistics through plant-in-plant production. (SDG 12)

We urgently address climate change and its impacts.

For us, that means: We will use 100 % carbon neutral electricity by the end of 2024. (SDG 13)

OUR TIMELINE

Translating these three basic goals into four individual steps and incorporating the standards of the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol, the following timeline emerges:

  •  

    2024

    We aim to use only and exclusively climate neutral electricity at all Ascorium production sites by 2024.

  • 2025

    By 2025*, we plan to reduce the Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions (operations) by 80 %.

    *compared to 2021.

     

  •  

    2030

    By 2030*, we will reduce the Scope 3 GHG emissions (upstream) by 50 %.

    *compared to 2021.

  • 2040

    We aim to meet net-zero global GHG emissions by 2040.
