Carbon per million dollars of revenue. The legacy industry-standard reference (CDP, MSCI). Useful for cross-sector context, but distorted by margin — high-margin firms appear artificially efficient. Read alongside the operational and asset intensities for the full picture.
OpEx (operating expenditure) is the running cost of the business — staff, services, energy, materials. This shows how carbon-intensive operations are per million dollars of spend. Removes the margin distortion that revenue-based ratios introduce.
EVIC (Enterprise Value Including Cash) is the firm's total capital footprint — equity + debt + cash + minority interest. The EU's standard intensity measure (SFDR PAI 3) — answers: how much carbon does each million of capital deployed in this business produce?
PP&E (Property, Plant & Equipment) plus leased real-estate assets is the firm's physical infrastructure on the balance sheet. This shows the carbon intensity of that physical footprint — uses Scope 1+2+3 for consistency with the other headline intensities. Surfaces stranded-asset risk for asset-heavy firms.
How the firm describes its decarbonisation approach in its own words — alongside the headline numbers above. Self-reported, page-cited.

Alongside the hydrogen and biogas investments, MEGGLE continues an ongoing programme of energy-saving projects across its 6 production sites, supported by ISO 50001 energy management certification.
MEGGLE's Scope 1+2 emissions are dominated by powder drying operations powered by an on-site combined heat and power plant in Wasserburg that for technical reasons has so far been run on natural gas. The company has taken a strategic decision to embark on a hydrogen transition path, and is investing in a biogas plant that will also use permeate molasses production residues as feedstock for heat and energy generation.
MEGGLE positions its direct-compaction (DC) lactose grades and dry-powder-inhaler (DPI) lactose grades as customer-side decarbonisation enablers. DC saves water and electricity vs wet granulation; switching pMDI to DPI inhalers saves 115-480 kg CO2e per patient per year, with potential reductions of 46,600 tons CO2e/year if 75% of German ambulant pulmonologists prescribed DPI.
Milk ingredients account for 82.5% of MEGGLE's corporate carbon footprint. The company is working closely with stakeholders (customers, suppliers, governmental bodies, dairies associations) to set regionally appropriate carbon-reduction targets and realistic measures for dairy-based raw materials, and is progressively refining its Scope 3 database from literature-based to primary farmer data via a new IT tool.
MEGGLE works with dairy suppliers to reduce biodiversity loss and deforestation by limiting overseas feed for dairy ingredients, requiring certified vegetable fats/oils and wood-based materials, and from January 2024 requiring all soy in the QM milk system to be sustainable and deforestation-free certified.
