SKF’s Journey to a Carbon Neutral Future: The Net Zero Goal
For years, SKF has gone to great lengths to address climate change and the global bearing manufacturer is confident that they will accomplish what they’ve set out to achieve:
- By 2030, their worldwide production facilities will have net zero greenhouse gas emissions.
- By 2050 – or even earlier, their full supply chain, from materials to the delivery of products and solutions, will also be net zero.
Attaining such ambitious goals requires a combined effort and commitment from those not only within their own organisation but throughout the entire value chain.
The goal of achieving a net zero supply chain covers both indirect and direct emissions.
This entails…
- Purchased direct material.
- Purchased indirect materials and services
- Transportation & Distribution (all upstream transportation and downstream transportation managed by SKF)
- Fuel and energy-related activities
- Waste generated in operations
- Employee commuting
- Business travel
- Capital goods
