Carbon footprint of commercial projects
At Fritz Hansen, we care about the environment and know you do too. In the interest of understanding environmental impact, we can now deliver a Carbon Footprint product impact calculation for commercial client projects.
Our commitments
As a global design company, we have a responsibility to reduce our climate impact and ensure fair working conditions. We have set ambitious goals for ourselves and strive to be transparent about our progress.
UN global impact
In 2022, Fritz Hansen became a member of the UN Global Compact – a principle-based framework for responsible business. As a member of the UN Global Compact, we pledge to do our part in working for a more responsible future and focus our efforts in accordance with Global Compact’s 10 principles on Human rights, Labour, Environment and Anti-Corruption. Each year we will measure and report our progress within these 10 principles. Read more about UN Global Compact below.
Climate commitment
Our planet is challenged by growing consumption and rapid climate changes. As a globally operating company, we are aware of our responsibility and we want to do our part to stay within the planetary boundaries. Scientific research shows that we must limit the global temperature rise to 1,5°C. Therefore we are committed to reducing our greenhouse gas emissions in scope 1 and 2 by 38% by 2025, as well as measuring and reducing our emissions in scope 3.
This short-term climate goal for 2025 has been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
About the Science Based Targets initiative
The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is a global body enabling businesses to set ambitious emissions reduction targets in line with the latest climate science. It is focused on accelerating companies across the world to halve emissions before 2030 and achieve net-zero emissions before 2050. Read the Fritz Hansen Greenhouse Gas Report 2022 below.
