Rottneros' targets
for a sustainable future
Sustainable value creation lies behind the Gooup's
entire operation - from raw materials and production,
to our renewable products, all of which contribute
to amore climate-friendly society. We present here
our environmental- and social targets.
The foundation of our sustainability work
Rottneros supports the Swedish government’s decision on a national strategy for the circular economy, with the goal for Sweden to become the world’s first fossil-free welfare state. The EU taxonomy is also an important basis in our sustainability work. Rottneros’ sustainability goals and strategic decisions have been formulated based on our stakeholders’ most important requirements and needs.
The target is to reduce biogenic carbon emissions by 30 percent by 2030 compared with 2022.
In 2025 the share of biogenic carbon that that is not part of the end product or energy, such as waste and emissions to water, was 2.7 percent. Down from 3.2 percent the previous year.
The target is to have a fossil-free production by 2030. In 2025 fossil carbon dioxide emissions from fuel, internal transports and purchased electricity decreased by 60 percent to 49 thousand tonnes.
The target is to reach 50 percent self-sufficiency rate for electricity by 2030.
The degree of self-sufficiency has increased through both reduced electricity consumption and higher electricity generation.
Rottneros measures OSW, organisational and social work environment, in annual employee surveys.
In 2025 the index increased from 75 to 77, which is higher than the industry average of 72.
Rottneros has a zero vision for workplace injuries resulting in sick leave. The target is to have a lower LTIFR than the industry average. The number of accidents with sick leave decreased from 3 to 2 during the year, reducing the LTIFR to 4.6 compared to 6.3 the previous year. LTIFR represents the number of accidents with sick leave per million hours worked.
