Combatting climate change

We're cutting our energy use and carbon emissions, using more renewable fuels, and working towards a low carbon future across our value chain.

We've pledged to reach net zero by 2040 and to power our operations with 100% renewable electricity by 2030. In 2021 we reached our 2030 target to cut our sites' GHG emissions by 65% and have maintained this during 2022.

Generating more of our own renewable energy

We continued to generate more of our own energy in 2022, and 13 of our sites now have solar photovoltaic (PV) panels installed. Our Barcelona distribution centre installed a solar roof, which has economic as well as environmental benefits as it will cover 40% of the site’s electricity needs, saving up to €40,000 a year. In September, we also completed construction of a 5,500m² solar roof at our site in Anhui, China.
