our roadmap to net zero
We are committed to a clear decarbonization roadmap and have created a corridor of different scenarios. Through collaborative efforts with our customers, we can leverage rapid decarbonization possibilities, fostering a joint approach. Our most conservative reduction goal already surpasses the targets outlined in the SBTi Net-Zero Standard.

mindful water management
We are continuously monitoring and optimizing water consumption. Our water stewardship strategy focuses on closing cycles through water recycling and reuse.
We aim to minimize our environmental impact through continuous water-saving measures and improving wastewater treatment.
achievements
- Our cooling water is kept in separate water circuits to reduce freshwater withdrawal.
- We use big data software to measure and optimize water withdrawal, consumption and discharge in real-time.
- We implemented water-saving measures, such as drilling of own wells and setting lower cooling temperatures.
- All production water is treated in our own or in municipal wastewater treatment plants.
