In 2023, we set science-based targets, which were approved by the Science Based Targets Initiative 3 (SBTi), aligning our carbon reduction pathway with the goals of the Paris Agreement. We are consistently implementing our decarbonisation actions and have already exceeded our Scope 3 performance targets, demonstrating tangible progress in reducing emissions across our value chain. Looking ahead, we intend to further strengthen our climate ambition by developing a comprehensive decarbonisation roadmap. At the same time, we are committed to stepping up our efforts to protect biodiversity and accelerate our transition towards a circular economy model. We intend to embed measurable, performance- driven KPIs across all environmental priorities to ensure transparency, accountability and continuous improvement in the effectiveness of our sustainability efforts.

At Schréder, protecting the environment is not just an obligation – it is a responsibility that we actively embrace. Climate action lies at the core of our strategy, and we are fully committed to reducing our own and our customers’ carbon footprints through meaningful, science-based initiatives. Our ambition is reflected not only in words, but also in measurable commitments, including SBTi-approved targets that are aligned with the latest climate science and the goals of the Paris Agreement.
