Lantmännen is an agricultural cooperative and Northern Europe’s leader in agriculture, machinery, bioenergy and food products.
Unibake has an annual footprint of 823,000 tons CO2e (baseline:2019).
It’s interesting that 91% of these total emissions derive from scope 3 - emissions that we do not control. The raw materials we use in our products (flour, seeds, butter, palm oil, vegetable oils, eggs and so forth) count for 62% of those emissions.
Of this, flour alone stands for 23% - a footprint that is hard for us to change because it starts outside of our business – in the field. Over the past years, our good colleagues in Lantmännen have gained strong experience with climate-friendlier solutions which provide us with a unique opportunity to influence the flour footprint in our bakeries.
This is an example of how we strongly benefit from the Field to Fork value chain that we are part of.
Our Science Based Climate Commitments
Unibake has set its climate ambition to become CO2e Net Zero no later than 2050. These are the targets we pursue to get there:
By 2027:
- 72% of suppliers-by-emissions, covering purchased goods and services, upstream transportation & distribution, and business travel will have science-based targets
By 2030:
- Reduce absolute Scope 1 & 2 GHG emissions by 50% from a 2019 baseline
- Reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 30% from a 2019 baseline
By 2050:
- Reach net-zero GHG emissions across the value chain
- Reduce absolute Scope 1 & 2 GHG emissions by 90% from a 2019 baseline*
- Reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 90% from a 2019 baseline
* The target boundary includes biogenic land-related emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks.
