Ariston Group received official validation that its greenhouse gas emission reduction targets in Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 conform to the SBTi Criteria and Recommendations.
Acknowledging the urgency for global businesses to address climate change, Ariston Group committed to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 42% by 2030, from a 2021 base year.
The group also committed to reduce Scope 3 GHG emissions from the use of sold products by 51.6% per million euro value added by 2030, from a 2021 base year.
Following a rigorous assessment against quantitative and qualitative criteria, the SBTi stated that these ambitions comply with all applicable requirements, hence representing near-term science-based emission reduction targets, and that Scope 1 and Scope 2 targets align with the Paris Agreement 1.5° trajectory.
“The SBTi validation marks a key milestone in our sustainable development. While we activate all possible levers to reduce our environmental impact, SBTi guarantees that Ariston Group’s emission reduction strategy aligns to what is needed to keep global heating below catastrophic levels and reach net-zero by 2050 at latest”, commented Sabrina Baggioni, Chief Digital, Marketing and Sustainability Officer.
