Our Pathway to Decarbonisation

We rely on natural resources. Our scale ensures that we can play a positive role in the transition to a low-carbon economy where both nature and our business can thrive.

Our climate ambition

Looking at the Future

By 2025, we aim to achieve 100% of purchased renewable electric energy where technically feasible to reduce our operational footprint. In 2023 we achieved a 20% reduction in CO2 emissions per ton of finished product compared to 2017 levels. We also fixed a third-party verified emissions baseline that will be key to set targets and transparently track our progress.

Carbon footprint and decarbonization roadmap

Bolton’s Climate Transition Plan

We are working to shift from our current ambition to targets aligned with the latest climate science. Based on our Corporate Carbon Footprint, we are developing Bolton’s first Climate Transition Plan aimed at ensuring an ambitious yet realistic contribution to Climate Change mitigation in our own operations and throughout the whole value chain. To showcase our efforts, we have committed to the Science Based Targets Initiative.

Our CDP climate discolsure

Our Commitment to Climate Transparency

CDP, a not-for-profit overseeing global environmental disclosure, is the gold standard for environmental reporting. In 2023, we submitted our first CDP questionnaire to meet client requests and assess our climate maturity. Bolton scored B, reflecting our commitment to transparency and a low-carbon economy.
