Valio

Valio, a Finnish dairy products company, reported its Scope 1 and Scope 2 carbon emissions for 2025 as approximately 40,108,000 kg CO2e and 32,959,000 kg CO2e (market-based), respectively.

Looking back, in 2023, Valio disclosed its total carbon footprint as approximately 1,985,700,000 kg CO2e. This total included Scope 1 emissions of 48,900,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 market-based emissions of 112,400,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of 1,824,800,000 kg CO2e. A significant portion of its Scope 3 emissions in 2023, approximately 1,824,800,000 kg CO2e, came from purchased goods and services.

Valio has set near-term Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) commitments to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. The company aims to reduce absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 47% by 2030 from a 2019 base year. This target includes biogenic emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks. Additionally, Valio commits to reducing absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from upstream transportation and distribution by 28% by 2030 from a 2019 base year. The company also targets a 50% reduction in Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services per kg of raw milk over the same target period. These targets for Scope 1 and 2 emissions are consistent with keeping warming to 1.5°C.
