Sustainability targets

We have set sustainability targets in selected focus areas and report on KPIs for our operations to track progress towards targets. In addition to our own operations, we also work with customers and suppliers to achieve the targets.

Net zero

Target

A 25 percent reduction of scope 1 and scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2025, compared to 2019.

Outcome

In 2025, our GHG emissions amounted to 162.6 ktons (162.4), based on comparable data. Compared to the base year 2019, GHG emissions have been reduced by 37 percent.

Circularity

Target

Increase our waste circularity1) to 80 percent by 2025.

Outcome

We achieved 72 percent (74) waste circularity. The decrease in waste circularity was partly due to reduced metal waste generation.

Safety

Target

A 25 percent reduction of the Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (TRIFR) to 2.7 by 2025, compared to 2019.

Outcome

Our safety efforts resulted in an all-time low TRIFR of 2.3 (3.0). Compared to the 2019 baseline, the TRIFR was reduced by 28 percent.
