Thule Group joins the internationally renowned Science Based Targets Initiative in the company's ambition to further reduce the company's greenhouse gas emissions. By standing up for the Science Based Target Initiative, the company's work to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is made more transparent and revived by external experts.

With the signing of the Sienced Based Targets Initiative (SBTi), Thule Group sets even clearer goals for its continuous long-term work to reduce the company's own, as well as suppliers, greenhouse gas emissions. The goals are also followed up, in connection with accession, in a scientific way and audited by external auditors.

- With the signing of Sience Based Targets, we do not just set ambitious goals for this part of our sustainability work. We are also part of a context that effectively and scientifically evaluates the results of our measures, says Kajsa von Geijer, SVP HR and Sustainability at Thule Group. Through the signing, we will also fully include our suppliers in our own sustainability work. In other words, we are taking a clear further step in our ambition to contribute to a sustainable and responsible development from a social, environmental as well as economic perspective.

Sienced Based Targets is based on a collaboration between CDP, the UN Global Compact, the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). An overall goal is also to, with a scientific goal, by 2020 create an international reporting standard that facilitates follow-up and comparison between companies and industries.
