“Net Zero

Elopak has worked systematically to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions since 2008. We have publicly reported our emission data every year and made significant emission cuts through several reduction initiatives, including the increased use of renewable electricity. Since 2016, we have sourced 100% renewable electricity and have been a member of RE100. Since the same year, we have been a carbon-neutral company, offering carbon-neutral packaging to our customers. In 2019, Elopak was an early adopter of the SBTi’s initiative to cut Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, keeping the global average temperate increase below 1.5°C.

Elopak supports the SBTi and took part in the Net zero Road Test with 80 other companies during the summer of 2021. We see it as imperative to reach net zero by 2050 first and foremost by delivering on our near term targets and to stay on track towards the Paris Climate Agreement’s goal of limiting the consequences of climate change on the people on this planet.

Elopak has updated our near-term targets on the path to net zero, committing to reducing absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 42% by 2030 from a 2020 base year. In addition, we pledge to continue sourcing 100% renewable electricity. We have also committed to reducing scope 3 GHG emissions by 25% by 2030 from a 2020 base year.”
