ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY
— SHAPING THE FUTURE
Progress and responsibility in 2025
At STEFFCA, we work systematically with ESG as an
integrated part of our business.
For us, this is about taking responsibility for our carbon
footprint, our employees and the way we run our company.
First reduction target
In 2025, we set our 昀椀rst concrete reduction target. By
2030, we aim to reduce our CO₂e emissions in scope 1
and 2 by 30% compared with our 2022 baseline.
As part of this work, we have switched to district heating
and phased out natural gas in our own operations. Our
electricity consumption is also covered by 100% wind
energy, and in 2025 we installed solar panels on our new
buildings. From 2026, we will collect data on the system’s
energy production.
We also work continuously to make production more
energy-ef昀椀cient. During the colder months, we recover
昀椀ltered excess heat from the machinery to heat the
production hall. During the warmer months, the 昀椀ltered air
is discharged to improve the indoor climate.
In transport, we set a new direction in 2025, with all
company cars to be electric going forward. The transition
will be implemented gradually from 2026. In 2025, the
vehicle 昀氀eet consisted of 昀椀ve hybrid cars and one electric
van.

Circular economy and resource ef昀椀ciency
We actively work with circular principles through the reuse
of packaging, systematic waste sorting and ongoing
optimisation of our resource consumption.
Cutting technologies and digital nesting help us make
better use of raw materials and reduce waste. At the same
time, the share of recycled waste has increased, while
waste and material consumption have not grown at the
same pace as our activity.
Our responsibility also extends beyond our own
operations. Gaskets and seals play an important role in
preventing leaks, waste and unplanned downtime for our
customers.
Insulation jackets reduce heat loss in technical
installations and industrial processes and can therefore
contribute to lower energy consumption and lower CO₂e
emissions for customers.
In 2025, we strengthened the foundation for our ESG work
through more systematic data collection and a clearer
focus on the areas where we can make the greatest
difference. This applies to our own operations, our value
chain and the solutions we deliver to customers.
We are also continuing to improve data quality in scope
3, particularly within purchased goods and raw materials
as well as upstream transport and distribution, where our
largest emissions arise.
