The company has also disclosed Scope 3 emissions, although specific figures for this category were not provided for 2022. In previous years, emissions have shown a trend of reduction.

Overall, while Lyckeby has made strides in reducing its carbon footprint, the absence of formal reduction targets suggests a need for more structured climate commitments moving forward.
