Question Id: E1-1_12
This is further supported by the fact that GN do not currently have material climate-related financial risks (see page 29), and the fact that GN is not excluded from the Paris-aligned benchmarks.

- Provide a detailed description of the expected decarbonisation levers and their overall quantitative contributions towards achieving the GHG emission reduction targets, as outlined in Disclosure Requirement E1-4 concerning climate change mitigation and adaptation. Include specific strategies such as energy or material efficiency, consumption reduction, fuel switching, utilization of renewable energy, and the phase-out or substitution of products and processes.

To meet our Scope 3 target of 25% reduction in emissions by 2030, we prioritize:
Product and packaging design: We have increased the use of lower carbon materials in new product development, particularly in the Enterprise division. From having used less than 1% recycled or renewable plastic in our products in 2021, we have increased the proportion of recycled or renewable plastics and synthetic fibers out of total weight of plastic and synthetic fibers to 11.4% across our product portfolio in 2024. Four new products with recycled or renewable plastic were launched in 2024, with more products containing recycled or renewable plastic to be launched in 2025.
Decarbonization of transport and logistics: Reducing air freight is a significant decarbonization lever for GN. In 2024, we reduced the share of air freight (by tonkm) from the global to regional distribution hubs in our Enterprise division from 94% in 2021 to 22%, which was the main driver for the absolute reduction of 50,313 tCO2eq in Scope 3 category 4 (14% of total Scope 3 emissions in 2021). We will continue switching to ocean and rail freight wherever possible.
Renewable energy in the supply chain: To reduce emissions from outsourced manufacturing we track our suppliers’ share of renewable energy consumption and will engage them to increase where necessary in support of our long-term targets.
