Through our double materiality assessment (DMA), we have identified material biodiversity-related impacts and an opportunity in our business, both in our own operations and in our value chain. Identifying and assessing these impacts help us to understand how we can continue to strengthen resilience across our operations, which we also assess using the methodology of the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD).

We have not identified any material dependencies on biodiversity and ecosystems, although soil stability at our sites constitutes the most significant dependency. Regarding our transitional and physical risks, we have mapped out our exposure and have not found significant risks from biodiversity and ecosystems that are not already covered in our mitigation processes and biodiversity action plans. Additionally, we have not identified any systemic risks to our business model that are not addressed through our established practices or the implementation of measures to reach our biodiversity ambition.
