Södra Wood Products AB's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Södra Wood Products AB reported significant carbon emissions, with Scope 1 emissions totalling approximately 94,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions reaching about 667,000,000 kg CO2e. The following year, 2024, saw a reduction in Scope 1 emissions to around 85,000,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 3 emissions increased to approximately 718,000,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Södra Wood Products AB has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at mitigating their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) commitments suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. As a key player in the wood products industry, Södra's emissions profile highlights the challenges faced in reducing carbon outputs, particularly in Scope 3, which often encompasses the majority of emissions in the sector. The company’s ongoing efforts to address climate change will be crucial in aligning with global sustainability goals.
