Our solutions in action
With our Green Premium™ label and EcoDesign Way™ program, we keep reducing materials in products and increasing the performance of our products, services, and solutions to improve our end-to-end environmental footprint.
A significant part of biodiversity lies in upstream supply chain, which is why not only do we aim to operate in a net zero ecosystem, we also help others engage and accelerate partner decarbonization along the entire value chain.
We are active participants of Livelihoods carbon funds, a novel investing model to help restore natural ecosystems and lower carbon emissions, ensuring direct impact in remote and rural areas, and providing sustainability of renewable resources.
