Domino Printing Sciences (Domino) has unveiled a comprehensive carbon reduction strategy aimed at achieving net zero emissions by 2050. This ambitious plan, detailed on the company’s newly launched corporate social responsibility (CSR) website, includes specific targets to achieve carbon neutrality across scope 1 and 2 emissions and a 25% reduction in scope 3 emissions by 2030, based on 2022 levels. The initiative aligns with the United Nations’ call to halve emissions by 2030 and achieve net zero by 2050 to mitigate the worst effects of climate change.
Jessica Büttner, Group Environmental Impact Manager at Domino, emphasized the urgency of collective action across the supply chain to meet these critical environmental goals. Domino acknowledges its role in the global manufacturing and print services sectors and is committed to minimizing its environmental footprint in line with UN targets.
Key Components of Domino’s Carbon Reduction Plan
-
Scope 1 and 2 Emissions Reduction
Domino’s strategy focuses on reducing direct emissions from its manufacturing and logistics processes. This includes transitioning to renewable energy sources such as solar power, minimizing air freight usage, optimizing transport and logistics, and implementing internal waste reduction initiatives. These efforts aim to directly lower the company’s carbon footprint. -
Scope 3 Emissions Reduction
Addressing indirect emissions, Domino is prioritizing improvements in product design and development. This involves increasing the use of recycled, renewable, and low-carbon materials, enhancing product efficiency, and developing innovative solutions to help customers reduce manufacturing waste. By collaborating with supply chain partners, Domino aims to create a more sustainable ecosystem. - Carbon Offsetting
Where direct emission reductions are not feasible, Domino plans to offset residual emissions through certified carbon offset projects or emerging carbon technologies. The company has set a long-term goal to neutralize any remaining emissions by 2050.
Commitment to Sustainability
Jessica Büttner expressed pride in announcing Domino’s environmental goals and emphasized the company’s dedication to working alongside customers and partners to achieve net zero. She acknowledged the ambitious nature of these targets but underscored the importance of taking responsibility for positive progress. “By committing to these goals, we ensure that Domino remains a sustainable and responsible business, supporting our customers, communities, and employees,” she added.
