Lactalis has set ambitious climate commitments, with some targets cascaded from its parent company, Groupe Lactalis S.A. It aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2050, as recognised by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

Near-term targets (from a 2019 base year) include reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 46.2% by 2030. Additionally, Lactalis commits to reducing Scope 1 Forestry, Land and Agriculture (FLAG) GHG emissions by 33.3% by 2030 (from a 2019 base year) and Scope 3 FLAG GHG emissions by 30.3% by 2030 (from a 2021 base year). The company also aims for 73.8% of its suppliers and customers to have science-based targets by 2028.

Long-term targets (from a 2019 base year) include a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2050. Furthermore, Lactalis commits to a 90% reduction in absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 2050 (from a 2022 base year) and a 72% reduction in Scope 3 FLAG GHG emissions by 2050 (from a 2022 base year). The company also has a commitment to no deforestation across its primary deforestation-linked commodities by December 31, 2025.
