Franke

Franke, headquartered in Switzerland (CH) and operating in the basic iron and steel and ferro-alloys industry, is committed to addressing its carbon emissions.

In 2025, Franke reported Scope 1 emissions of approximately 8.7 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of about 14.4 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for 2025 were approximately 15.1 billion kg CO2e. For 2024, Franke's Scope 3 emissions were approximately 19.0 billion kg CO2e, with no Scope 1 or 2 data provided for this year. In 2023, Franke's Scope 1 emissions were approximately 9.3 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions were about 17.8 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions totalled approximately 20.3 billion kg CO2e. This includes Scope 3 categories such as use of sold products (about 18.6 billion kg CO2e), purchased goods and services (about 1.6 billion kg CO2e), and upstream transportation and distribution (approximately 132.3 million kg CO2e).

Franke has established several climate commitments, including a goal to become net CO2e-neutral in production and across its entire value chain by 2050. This long-term net-zero target covers all scopes. The company also aims for a 90% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2050, from a 2020 base year. More immediate targets include a 56.0% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2030, also from a 2020 base year. Additionally, Franke is committed to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services, capital goods, and upstream transportation and distribution by 32.5% by 2033, from a 2020 base year. Franke's production site in Aarburg aims to be CO2-neutral through the purchasing of electricity from hydropower, a wood chip plant, and a photovoltaic plant. Franke's emissions performance data is cascaded from its parent company, Franke Holding AG.
