The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) has approved Nilörngruppen’s science-based targets for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

“We are proud that our climate targets have been validated by the SBTi. This is a strategically important milestone that further strengthens Nilörn’s position as one of the sustainability leaders in the global label and trims industry. The approval is not only a key part of a transparent and credible sustainability programme, but it also reinforces our ambition to support our clients in their own decarbonisation journeys. Meeting these high standards helps us respond to growing customer expectations and requirements,” says Krister Magnusson, CEO of Nilörngruppen AB.

“Ensuring that our climate targets align with SBTi requirements has been a collaborative effort. This validation reflects our commitment to transparency and accountability, and I am proud to have supported Nilörn in achieving this important milestone,” says Mridu Surendran, ESG Compliance Coordinator.
