In 2023, Fingerprints reported carbon emissions of approximately 613,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 and about 6,543,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions, which includes significant contributions from purchased goods and services (6,543,000 kg CO2e) and business travel (256,000 kg CO2e). This data reflects a comprehensive approach to emissions reporting, although no Scope 1 emissions data is available. Comparatively, in 2022, the company recorded Scope 2 emissions of around 480,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions related to business travel at 122,000 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a growing awareness and reporting of emissions, particularly in Scope 3 categories. Fingerprints has set ambitious reduction targets, aiming for a 50% reduction in Scope 2 emissions by 2025, using 2021 as the baseline year. This target is to be achieved through the use of origin guarantees. Additionally, the company is working towards a 20% reduction in Scope 3 emissions from business travel, compared to the 2019 baseline of 323,500 kg CO2e, by 2025. The emissions data and reduction initiatives are sourced from Fingerprint Cards AB (publ), ensuring a clear understanding of the company's climate commitments and performance.
