Enabling the transformation to a low-carbon society
We have set science-based targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement.
Atlas Copco is committed to science-based targets. In doing so, we aspire to decouple economic growth from our environmental impact. To succeed, we empower our customers with technology that significantly improves the sustainability of their manufacturing operations. Our latest solutions increase productivity while reducing energy and resource usage, enabling more efficient processes. In short, we help ourselves and our customers do more with less.
The industrial sector, which includes the manufacturing industry, accounts for roughly one-fifth of the global greenhouse gas emissions and consumes approximately half of the world’s energy resources. Thus, there is an urgent need for manufacturing companies to become more sustainable by optimizing energy use, transitioning to clean energy sources, reducing dependence on acquiring new raw materials, and reusing resources responsibly. Atlas Copco is committed to helping our customers make these important transitions and achieve their carbon reduction targets.
Innovation and technological progress are key to finding lasting solutions to environmental and economic challenges. Companies must reimagine how to create and capture value in this new environment. Running a sustainable and profitable manufacturing process will require more intelligent insights from the plant floor to improve decision analytics, allowing for better utilization of resources and reduction in operational waste. These sustainability improvements, driven by innovation and information, will ensure manufacturers achieve healthy returns on their capital investments.
