The 5 steps of climate action
The following 5 steps are required for ClimatePartner certification:
Scroll down to see how the requirements were met.
Carbon footprints
The corporate carbon footprint (CCF) is the starting point for climate action. The CCF gives you clear insights into a company's greenhouse gas emissions - for example, you can identify where the carbon hotspots are and define emission reduction measures accordingly to mitigate the company's climate impact effectively.
This carbon footprint calculation covers data from the period January 2023 - December 2023Carbon footprint (in CO₂ equivalents):
13,632,100 Kg CO₂
Included in the carbon footprint
- Scope 1 includes all directly generated emissions that a company controls, for example fuel for company cars.
- Scope 2 includes indirect emissions caused by purchased energy, for example electricity.
- Scope 3 includes indirect emissions from a company's activities, which may cover, for example, employee commuting, logistics, and the production of raw materials.
Reduction targets

This contribution is intended to accelerate collective efforts towards achieving global net-zero emissions and (3) supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Supported projects undergo regular audits by independent third parties to ensure transparency and accountability. However, this financial contribution is not included in the associated greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory nor considered towards meeting decarbonization goals (2).
