Reducing our environmental footprint

Climate pillar

Our ambition is to become one of the most sustainable chemical companies in Europe. Reducing our Scope 1 and 2 CO₂ emissions to zero and increasing our share of renewable energy to 100% by 2040, ahead of the Paris Agreement targets to limit global warming to 1.5C, is a key element of our ambitious goals. Our targets have been validated by SBTi making us committed to becoming a net-zero company in 2050 across the value chain.

We will even go a step further and accelerate our Scope 1 reduction in The Netherlands by 10 years to 2030 through tailor-made agreements with the Dutch government. ​We have concrete action plans to achieve this based on existing and proven technologies. Additionally, we help our customers reduce their product carbon footprint with our low-carbon products. 

Below you can find an overview of all our climate targets organized around three focus areas.  Read more about our path to carbon neutrality by 2040 or our climate case studies.

Accelerating our climate targets

In order to accelerate the reduction of our CO₂ emissions, Nobian has signed tailor-made agreements with the Dutch government. This cooperation is part of the Dutch tailor-made agreements approach to enable energy-intensive companies in the Netherlands to reduce their CO₂ emissions faster and beyond the Dutch Climate Agreement. Through the tailor-made agreements, Nobian intends to accelerate its aim of zero emissions in 2040 by 10 years, to become CO₂ neutral by around  2030.
