Committed to greenhouse gas reductions
Borregaard has committed to major greenhouse gas reductions in the years to come.
The Science Based Targets Initiative has approved Borregaard’s targets to reduce Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions. We have committed to a 42% absolute reduction by 2030 and to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain by 2050 (90% absolute reduction), from a 2020 base year.
The approved targets for Scope 3 emissions are reductions of 25% by 2030 and 90% by 2050 from a 2020 base year.
The targets are in line with the ambitions of the Paris Agreement, and the Science Based Targets Initiative has classified our targets as a contribution to limiting global temperature increase to 1.5°C.

The diagram shows our transition plan with measures to reach our science-based target from base year 2020 towards our near-term target in 2030 and net-zero target in 2050, and the results of completed measures from 2009 to 2020. Net-zero means 90% absolute reduction and 10% carbon offsetting. The table corresponding to this diagram can be found in E1-4 (see page 79 in the Annual Report 2025).
