Franke's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Franke Group reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 25,075,000 kg CO2e, which includes 9,334,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 15,741,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company also disclosed significant Scope 3 emissions, totalling about 19,850,755,000 kg CO2e, with the majority arising from the use of sold products (approximately 18,553,038,000 kg CO2e). Franke has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2050, with a base year of 2020. The company has established near-term targets to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 56% by 2030. Additionally, Franke plans to cut Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services, capital goods, and upstream transportation and distribution by 32.5% by 2033. The company is also committed to achieving a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2050, alongside a similar target for Scope 3 emissions. These targets are aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and reflect Franke's dedication to transitioning to renewable energy sources, particularly at its production site in Aarburg, which is already CO2-neutral due to investments in hydro power and photovoltaic systems. Franke's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Franke Holding AG, which oversees the company's sustainability initiatives and targets.
