Climate change requires action by everyone around the globe. From 2007 to 2020, we reduced the CO2 emissions from our production facility by 53%.
We do not think it is enough to just be CO2 neutral. We want to be CO2 positive by 2030.
Renewable energy for sustainable carpets
Renewable energy is an important means of stopping global warming. Every year we invest extensive funds in offshore wind farms, thus ensuring the construction of even more wind turbines.
Since 2018, electricity consumption at our factories has been 100% covered by renewable energy. This also significantly reduces our climate footprint. But the most important thing is that we support the global agenda for a sustainable future.
Biogas takes us the rest of the way
Sustainable carpets must naturally be manufactured using sustainable fuel. Therefore, we are working to phase in biogas throughout our production facilities.The first steps have already been taken and we expect to reach 100% green electricity and biogras in our production facilities by 2025.
Climate partnership with the Danish government
In 2019, the Danish government set a goal of reducing Denmark’s CO2 emissions by 70%. This ambitious goal requires close cooperation with the industries that are responsible for a significant portion of all emissions. Based on our longstanding climate efforts, CEO John Vestergaard was elected deputy chairman of the Climate Partnership for Manufacturing Companies, which advises the government on efforts to reach the goal.
We are proud to have the opportunity to make a contribution to solving climate challenges on a national level.
