Stora Enso

Stora Enso, a leading packaging and labelling services provider headquartered in FI, is actively addressing its carbon footprint. For the reporting year 2025, the company reported a total of approximately 5.66 billion kg CO2e in emissions. This comprised around 990 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, approximately 40 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and an estimated 4.63 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Key contributors to its Scope 3 emissions include the processing of sold products (approximately 1.84 billion kg CO2e) and purchased goods and services (approximately 1.45 billion kg CO2e).

The company has set ambitious climate commitments, including a science-based target to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030, using 2019 as the baseline year. This target aligns with the 1.5-degree scenario. Stora Enso is also committed to reducing its Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030, also from a 2019 baseline. Furthermore, Stora Enso has committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2040 across all scope categories. The company is a signatory to The Climate Pledge, reinforcing its dedication to these long-term climate goals.

In 2023, total emissions were approximately 6.39 billion kg CO2e, including 1.46 billion kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 4.86 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3. A more significant reduction was observed from 2019, when total emissions stood at approximately 10.06 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 2.27 billion kg CO2e and Scope 3 at 7.43 billion kg CO2e.
