Commitment to a more sustainable future

Now in our third program, we have set our most ambitious targets yet keep playing our part tackling the global threat of climate change. 

For the first time, we have a long-term climate commitment to set targets with the Science Based Targets initiative. To realise a sustainable future we focus on: 

  • Sustainability program to 2025
  • Halving our greenhouse gas emissions by 2030
  • Achieving net-zero no later than 2050

Our 2025 sustainability program

Our five-year sustainability program complements our long-term climate commitment to set science-based targets in line with the Paris Agreement.

  • Innovation

    Sustainable innovation includes transparency for our customers. The 2025 targets are pending the science-based targets process.

  • Operations

    By committing to science-based targets, we have set long-term goals aligned to the Paris Agreement. With the program to 2025, we are working step by step towards our long-term goals.

  • Supply chain management

    To reach our 2025 targets, we are working to ensure a more sustainable supply chain, focusing on supplier audits and business partner Code of Conduct.

  • People

    Our 2025 targets are focusing on reducing our injury rate, injury lost day rate and on becoming an even more inclusive workplace.

Science Based Targets initiative

From October 2020, ASSA ABLOY has joined the Science Based Targets initiative to further substantially reduce our greenhouse gas emissions across the entire value chain.

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 set ambitious Scope 3 emissions reduction targets
  • We commit to net zero emissions across the whole value chain no later than 2050
  • We have two years to develop our targets and have them validated by the Science Based Targets initiative body
