Sustainability is now playing an increasingly important role for companies. More and more, businesses are striving to conserve resources and lower their carbon footprints. The Savencia Group likewise demonstrates its commitment through OXYGEN – the name of its corporate social responsibility and sustainable development approach – which emphasizes sustainable agriculture, responsible consumption and minimizing ecological impact. Beyond that, the Savencia Group has joined the Science Based Target initiative (SBTi) to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions in accordance with the Paris Agreement. Specific targets have been set, including a 27.5% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030 and a 22.5% reduction in Scope 3 emissions per product manufactured. The Savencia Group has already implemented sustainability measures such as high-efficiency hot water systems and are currently in the planning stages for energy audits and testing new sources of energy.
