Steelcase has set ambitious climate commitments, with Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) approved targets. The company aims to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by FY2050. Near-term SBTi commitments include reducing absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 50% by FY2031 from a FY2020 base year. Additionally, Steelcase commits to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from fuel- and energy-related activities, waste generated in operations, and business travel by 28% within the same timeframe. A significant engagement target is to have 80% of its suppliers, by emissions covering purchased goods and services and upstream transportation and distribution, set their own science-based targets by FY2025. For the long-term, Steelcase is committed to a 90% absolute reduction in Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions by FY2050 from a FY2020 base year.
