EOS is aiming to realize net-zero greenhouse gasoline emissions by 2045 and has gained approval from the Science Primarily based Targets initiative (SBTi).
The 3D printing firm has established a set of science-based goal which are ‘grounded in SBTi’s Internet-Zero Commonplace.’ SBTi is a globally recognised company motion organisations that helps different firms in aligning with the objectives of the Paris Settlement to restrict international warming to 1.5°C.
EOS’ targets – set towards a 2022 base 12 months – embrace a 42% absolute discount in Scope 1 and a couple of CO2e emissions by 2030, a 25% absolute discount in Scope 3 CO2e emissions by 2030, a 90% absolute discount in Scope 1 and a couple of CO2e emissions by 2040, and a 90% absolute discount in Scope 3 CO2e emissions by 2045. Scope 1 emissions concern people who an organization instantly generates, whereas scopes 2 and three concern oblique emissions.
To this finish, the corporate has developed a local weather roadmap primarily based on cross useful workshops and information pushed emissions evaluation.

“We’re proud to take this necessary step towards a 1.5-degree future, reinforcing our dedication to significant local weather motion and to supporting our prospects on their sustainability journeys,” stated Marie Langer, CEO of EOS. “Our validated science-based targets mirror EOS’ dedication to Accountable Manufacturing and our function in serving to drive sustainability progress inside the additive manufacturing trade.”
“We applaud EOS for setting bold net-zero targets. From a buyer perspective, it is a important step that helps our personal local weather ambitions and reinforces the significance of sustainability throughout the additive manufacturing worth chain,” added Tibo Uyttersprot, Head of Sustainability at Materialise.
Björn Hannappel, Head of Sustainability at EOS, supplied: “As our function states, we need to speed up the world’s transition to Accountable Manufacturing. These objectives will direct us inside EOS and the better EOS GROUP as we proceed our sustainability journey sooner or later.”
