Dependent: Scope 3.1 supplier engagement on purchased goods carbon footprint

Scope 3 is ~87% of total footprint; Scope 3.1 (purchased materials and services) is the dominant category. SBTi commitment: bring 85% of Scope 3.1 emissions into the SBTi framework by 2029 through direct supplier engagement. Coupled with green chemistry process optimization to reduce solvent use and alternative sourcing of lower-carbon raw materials.

Scope 1 and Scope 2 data restated for 2022 and 2023

Due to alignment with SBTi requirements, Scope 1 figures for prior years were restated (typically within 5% margin). Scope 2 footprint corrected by an average of +4.5 kT CO2eq per year due to purchased steam correction at Minden site.

EcoVadis: company moved from Bronze to Silver

All Siegfried sites recognized with silver or gold medal status by EcoVadis; Siegfried as a company moved from Bronze to Silver status in 2024.

87% renewable electricity via PPAs backed by GO/REC certificates; aiming for 100% in 2-3 years

Siegfried has concluded a significant proportion of sustainable power purchase agreements (PPAs) and currently achieves ~87% renewable electricity in 2024 (up from 70.7% in 2023). PPAs are backed by site-specific Guarantee of Origin (GO) certificates or Renewable Energy Certificates (REC). Solar panel installations went online in 2024 in Malta and Evionnaz. As part of its SBTi commitment, Siegfried is aiming at sourcing 100% of its electricity from certified renewable sources within the next 2-3 years.

Primary: Renewable electricity procurement via PPAs

Key focus of carbon reduction. Achieved 87% renewable electricity in 2024 through PPAs backed by GO/REC certificates. Targeting 100% certified renewable sourcing within 2-3 years. This is the dominant lever for Scope 2 reduction (Scope 2 down 76% since 2020).

Primary: Fuel switching away from natural gas and heavy fuels

Working to switch gradually to lower-emission energy sources. In 2022-2023 reduced natural gas dependency (-15.7%) but partly replaced with more carbon-intense LPG and light heating oil. In 2024 returned to more natural gas (+11.2% per Mio CHF) as supply pressure eased. Net zero technology roadmap to be developed in 2025.

Dependent: Green chemistry and process redesign for customer products

Global R&D team developed a green chemistry dashboard assessing atom efficiency, reagents/solvent acceptability, predicted waste profile. Example: 17-step generic API process optimized via telescoping and phase transfer catalysis yielded 45% waste reduction, 50% less solvents/raw materials, 18% yield increase. Engages customers (CDMO context) to validate process changes within GMP constraints.

SBTi near-term and net-zero targets submitted for validation (Nov 2024)

Siegfried submitted near-term and net-zero SBTi targets in November 2024. Near-term: reduce absolute Scope 1+2 GHG by 66.89% by 2033 from 2020 base; 85% of suppliers (by emissions, purchased goods) to have SBTs by 2029; Scope 3 fuel/energy, upstream transport and waste -32.5% by 2033 from 2022. Net Zero by 2050 with 90% Scope 1+2 reduction and 90% Scope 3 reduction from 2022.

Scope 1 boundary expanded to include cooling agent losses

Losses of cooling agents newly included in Siegfried's reporting for additional transparency and as part of SBTi climate target validation efforts. Air emissions other than CO2 contribute ~1.04% to overall GWP in 2024.

2023 waste figures restated due to conversion error

Total Waste and Total Hazardous Waste figures for 2023 restated due to an undetected conversion error (1306 metric tons instead of 9049 metric tons originally).
