Sustainability is integrated in everything we do
Science Based Targets initiative
In late 2022 ASSA ABLOY received validation by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for the company’s emission reduction targets.
We believe that science-based targets will be beneficial for our business on several levels. By setting a net-zero target in line with a 1.5°C future, we are making a critical contribution to limiting the worst impacts of climate change.
- We will halve Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions in our own operations by 2030
- We will reduce the footprint of our wider value chain, including raw materials, logistics and products by 28% by 2030, thereby addressing our Scope 3 footprint
- We commit to net zero emissions across the whole value chain no later than 2050
How we operate
