EDLE TROPFEN IN NUSS—ENERGY AND EMISSIONS
There are many aspects of life that have an impact on the climate. Manufacturing products consumes energy, and some of this energy comes from fossil fuels. Using these fossil fuels produces the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide, or CO2. When emitted into the atmosphere, CO2 amplifies the greenhouse effect, contributing to global warming and climate change. Consequently, it is important to reduce CO2 emissions and increasingly switch to renewable sources of energy.
ENERGY MANAGEMENT AND GREEN ELECTRICITY
At our Edle Tropfen in Nuss factories, we work with an energy management system in accordance with ISO 50001 to monitor and manage our energy use. Since 2025, we have purchased 100% renewable electricity for these factories and operate an efficient combined heat and power plant.
OUR GOAL: REDUCING EMISSIONS IN MANUFACTURING
Throughout the KRÜGER GROUP, we measure and report our greenhouse gas emissions in accordance with the GHG Protocol, including Scope 1 and Scope 2 since 2020 and Scope 3 since 2022. The information referenced here applies to our Group-wide greenhouse gas accounting and targets, and not specifically to the carbon footprint or climate neutrality of Edle Tropfen in Nuss as a product.
Our goal is to reduce our reported Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to net zero by 2040. Scope 3 emissions are measured and reported, but they are not currently included in this net-zero target. We plan to submit our climate targets to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi)* for validation in 2026; validation by the SBTi has not yet taken place.
* Science Based Targets initiative = An initiative that helps companies set and validate science-based emissions reduction targets in line with the Paris Agreement (1.5°C). Further information at sciencebasedtargets.org.
