Into the future - Selenis 2023 Sustainability Report

Our 2023 Carbon footprint Environment In 2023 Selenis achieved a 2% decrease in carbon intensity versus 2022. Our total carbon emissions increased 7%, given that we had a 9% increase in production; nonetheless, we were able to decrease our carbon intensity through synergies, as well as following through on our decarbonisation strategy, based on the following pillars: expanding our renewable energy sources, increasing recycled content utilisation, developing bio-based products, improving energy efficiency, and leading reforestation projects. Selenis acknowledges that a significant portion of our emissions originate from scope 3 activities, hence our focus on developing bio-based materials, and increasing recycled content in our production. Collaboration with suppliers is vital to achieve this goal, so in 2023 our team was committed to cultivating partnerships with our value chain as an integral component of our sustainability strategy. Through enhanced collaboration and transparency within our supply chain, we have also gained access to more precise data, notably the carbon footprint associated with our raw materials. This granular understanding has empowered us to make informed decisions, and switch to raw materials with lower carbon emissions whenever possible. Improvements in energy efficiency as well as an increase in electricity from renewable sources led to a 9% decrease in our scope 2 emissions from 2022 to 2023. Our commitment to renewable energy sources reduces the amount of greenhouse gas emissions associated with the production of our polymers and supports our decarbonisation goals.
