Our sustainable climate strategy<\/h2>\r\n

Record temperatures, drought, flooding \u2013 the impact of climate change is clearer than ever all over the world. And not just in remote producing countries. Whether hazelnuts from Italy or walnuts from Chile: our Seeberger natural products are grown in many countries severely affected by climate change. The changing climate has an impact on the cultivation and harvesting of our products worldwide. Growth cycles are shifting, and harvests may be smaller or non-existent. Our obligation? To integrate climate protection firmly into our daily processes and strategic decisions. That\u2019s the only way to ensure our products maintain that proven Seeberger quality and are safeguarded for future generations.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

We\u2019ve been working on implementing our climate protection strategy since 2013. We\u2019re saving energy wherever possible. We\u2019ve been using 100 % green energy since 2014 and are increasingly turning to e-mobility. We\u2019re producing energy ourselves using modern photovoltaic systems \u2013 and much more. We have been recording our emissions since 2013. Every two years, we review the current situation in the form of a climate footprint for CO2 emissions at our site and in production (scope 1 and 2). Our vision is a climate-neutral supply chain. To achieve this, we\u2019re currently preparing an illustrative product climate footprint for our product categories fruits, nuts and coffee, which we will use to plan specific measures and set reduction targets. On this basis, we can plan specific measures and set ourselves reduction targets.<\/span><\/p>\r\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion active_section=”0″ collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Seeberger climate footprint” tab_id=”1708674377300-e06ce7f1-083c”][vc_column_text]\r\n

Effective climate protection follows three steps: measure, avoid and reduce emissions, and offset the remaining emissions by investing in climate protection projects. That\u2019s also how we work at Seeberger: we\u2019ve been creating our climate footprint for our site since 2013. Every two years since then, we\u2019ve been measuring where CO2 emissions occur at our site and in production and in what amount. The Seeberger climate footprint is the starting point for our climate protection strategy and helps us to determine the effectiveness of our measures. We use it to plan further measures to save emissions and to decide on the ambitious targets for our climate protection strategy.<\/span>. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\r\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][\/vc_tta_accordion]

Measure emissions<\/span><\/div>\n
Every two years we prepare a company climate footprint (scope 1 and 2), which we use to measure progress and set new targets. To go beyond this and understand where and how emissions are produced along our supply chain (scope 3), we\u2019re currently preparing selected product climate footprints for fruits, nuts and coffee.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Reduce emissions<\/span><\/div>\n
From 2013 to 2018, we reduced our CO2 emissions by 21 % thanks to energy saving measures, switching to green energy and producing our own energy with photovoltaics.\nOur goal: to reduce CO2 emissions by a further 10 % by 2025 (base year 2019).<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Offset emissions<\/span><\/div>\n
We also believe it\u2019s important to invest in climate protection projects. Since 2022, we\u2019ve been offsetting the emissions from our site in Ulm (scope 1 and 2). The partnership enables us to protect the environment and support endangered species. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>
