Velux

VELUX, a Danish company specialising in secondary construction materials, is committed to reducing its carbon footprint. In 2025, VELUX's total emissions are projected to be approximately 1,001,000,000 kg CO2e. This includes about 20,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, and approximately 981,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Scope 3 emissions in 2025 are primarily driven by purchased goods and services at approximately 731,000,000 kg CO2e.

Looking back, VELUX's total emissions were about 1,099,000,000 kg CO2e in 2024 and around 1,107,000,000 kg CO2e in 2023. These figures include Scope 1 emissions of approximately 20,000,000 kg CO2e in 2024 and 22,000,000 kg CO2e in 2023. Scope 2 emissions (location-based) were around 37,000,000 kg CO2e in both 2024 and 2023. Scope 3 emissions were approximately 1,078,000,000 kg CO2e in 2024, with purchased goods and services accounting for about 820,000,000 kg CO2e, and around 1,084,000,000 kg CO2e in 2023, with purchased goods and services at about 830,000,000 kg CO2e.

VELUX has set ambitious targets for emissions reduction. The company aims for a 100% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2030, compared to a 2020 baseline. This commitment positions VELUX as a carbon-neutral company by 2030, also aiming to halve carbon emissions from its value chain by the same year. Furthermore, VELUX plans to achieve a 100% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2030, with 2020 as the baseline year.

A long-term commitment includes reducing and removing 4.5 million tonnes CO2 through forest and biodiversity projects by 2041, equivalent to the company’s carbon emissions from 1941-2041. VELUX also set a new target in 2024 to reduce its energy intensity by 56% by 2030, compared to a 2015 baseline.

The emissions data and reduction initiatives are cascaded from VELUX A/S, the parent company, indicating a comprehensive and unified approach to sustainability across the organisation.
