We’re proud to share our Sustainability Report 2023. This report highlights our progress towards our sustainability goals. You'll find details about how we’re advancing towards a circular economy, cutting waste, using more renewable energy, and aiming for net-zero emissions by 2050.
Looking back at last year, we've learned a lot from the information we gathered for the report. We've pinpointed key areas where we can do even better, reinforcing our belief that continuous innovation and collaboration are crucial for sustainable progress.
Key highlights:
