CARBON FOOTPRINT AND PRODUCT ECO-DESIGN
- Planet
Analysis of SOMFY’s carbon footprint shows that products account for most of its CO2 emissions, especially when they are on standby. The Group has launched a dual eco-design and responsible purchasing policy to reduce its footprint. A focus on the Group’s 2021 carbon footprint.
Our priority: Scope 3
SCOPE 3
Emissions over the product’s entire life cycle— from raw material extraction, transformation, and transport to the production site to transporting the finished product to the customer, its use, and finally, its end-of-life.
objective 2030
- 50 % of Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions in intensity (based on the number of actuators sold).
our actions
MOBILITY
Collaborator awareness days on soft mobility.
Eco-safe driving test on 30 vehicles.
TRANSPORTATION
Roll-out of a decarbonization plan for transportation, with three milestones: short, medium, and long-term.
DIGITAL
Implementation of the MyITFootprint tool to measure and reduce the GHG emissions of the Group’s IT equipment and servers.
PURCHASING
In addition to its Sustainable Purchasing Policy, the Group included an environmental criterion to select suppliers in 2022.
ECODESIGN
SOMFY improves its products’ energy efficiency by reducing their energy consumption. This approach has been rewarded with the in-house Act for Green label, which goes beyond regulations. The label is applied to the Group’s entire brand portfolio, and 65% of products sold by the end of 2022 carry the label.
To continue offering more energy-efficient products, the Group has launched design projects that incorporate Energy efficiency into products. Today, all products are developed with a maximum CO2 emissions equivalent threshold. The results already show a 5% reduction in electricity consumption in 2022.
