By focusing on what we can directly control and collaborating across the broader value chain, we strengthen resilience, provide competitive lower-carbon solutions, safeguard our global operations, and create lasting value for the environment, society, and our business.
Essity focuses its climate action on areas where we can achieve the most impactful emissions reductions by 2030, guided by the SBTi framework.
Energy use is the most significant part of Essity’s operational footprint. We improve efficiency across sites and expand the use of renewable energy to reduce emissions and strengthen operational performance.
We work toward zero waste to landfill by scaling circular solutions and improving material efficiency. We find new ways to reuse and repurpose production byproducts to reduce emissions and create value.
A significant share of emissions comes from purchased goods, services, and transportation to our sites.
Closer collaboration with logistics partners supports lower-emission deliveries.
We reduce the impact of product disposal by designing solutions that fit circular systems such as recycling and composting. We work with authorities and partners to strengthen waste infrastructure and improve recovery.
