Bjorn Borg's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, Bjorn Borg reported total carbon emissions of approximately 24,110,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 88,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, primarily from mobile combustion, and 98,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, which consist of 71,000 kg CO2e from purchased electricity and 27,000 kg CO2e from purchased heat. The majority of their emissions, about 23,923,000 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, with significant contributions from purchased goods and services (approximately 21,876,000 kg CO2e) and upstream transportation and distribution (about 1,460,000 kg CO2e). In 2023, the company reported total emissions of around 18,057,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 186,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 122,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for that year were approximately 17,749,000 kg CO2e, indicating a substantial reliance on indirect emissions from their supply chain. Despite these figures, Bjorn Borg has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, nor do they appear to be part of any formal climate pledges such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The emissions data is sourced directly from Björn Borg AB (publ) and is not cascaded from any parent organization. Overall, while Bjorn Borg has made strides in transparency regarding their carbon footprint, the absence of defined reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in their sustainability strategy.
