Alleima’s long-term sustainability agenda is based on four focus areas, with climate being one of them. Alleima’s own operations already have a relatively low carbon footprint.
- When it comes to halving the company’s carbon emissions by 2030, Alleima is ahead of schedule. Since 2019, Alleima has reduced carbon emissions by 37%.
- The plants use more than 96% fossil-free electricity.
Alleima has secured volumes of biogas that are blended with the fuel used in furnaces and heating processes and has thereby been able to reduce the amount of fossil fuels even further. In addition, we have performed hydrogen cutting tests with positive results.
Alleima has introduced third-party verified life cycle assessments (LCA) for rock drill steel and solid bar products and will measure and calculate the carbon footprint of more selected materials and products.
Alleima recently received a gold medal from EcoVadis, a leading provider of business sustainability ratings. Our results place us in the top 5% of the companies screened by EcoVadis.
We are committed to the Science-Based Target initiative (SBTi) and will set science-based climate targets to achieve net-zero emissions. The SBTi will provide a third-party review of our targets and confirm them. A target proposal was submitted and will be validated by SBTi before it is announced publicly.
