The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) assessed and approved our Scope 1 and Scope 2 science-based target submissions against the Call to Action’s eligibility criteria. The first target covers total Scope 1 and 2 emissions of our pulp and paper mills (92% of the Group´s total Scope 1 and 2 emissions) and aligns with the Pulp and Paper sector reduction pathway under a 2°C scenario within the Sectoral Decarbonisation Approach. The second target covers 100% of the Group´s total Scope 2 emissions (including converting operations) and aligns with a 2°C scenario within the Absolute Contraction Approach (The Absolute Contraction Approach is one of 3 available science-based target setting methods. A summary of science-based target setting methods can be found here).

  • Target 1: Reduce Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 34% per tonne of saleable production by 2025 and by 72% per tonne of saleable production by 2050 from a 2014 base year.
  • Target 2: Reduce Scope 2 GHG emissions by 39% per MWh by 2025 and by 86% per MWh by 2050 from a 2014 base year.

Together, the two targets cover more than 95% of Mondi´s total Scope 1 and 2 emissions (We excluded about 4% of Mondi´s total GHG emissions from our science-based targets. This includes Scope 1 emissions from our converting operations and other emissions such as mobile transportation, waste related GHG emissions, ozone depleting substances).

The boundary of our targets includes biogenic emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks.
