As part of the Saint-Gobain Group, we are aligned with the Group’s goal to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. This ambition is part of the Group’s strategy to limit its environmental impact and contribute to decarbonising its markets.
Since 2019, our actions follow a robust methodology guided by science-based targets, and a proven track record of reducing environmental impact.
Saint-Gobain has developed our sustainability objectives according to the GHG protocol, splitting our emission targets into Scope 1 (direct emissions from our plants), Scope 2 (electricity-related emissions), and Scope 3 (value chain emissions). Saint-Gobain Refractory Zirconia has committed to the following objectives by 2030 to reduce the impact of our supply chain & operations:
We are conducting Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) on our products, consistent with ISO 14040:2006 and ISO 14044:2006. This will help us understand where to focus our efforts to make the biggest impact in reducing our carbon footprint. We will keep sustainability as an integral part of new product development to minimize the environmental footprint of both manufacture and usage of our products.
