Solutions for a sustainable life Our roof windows create better and healthier interiors for future generations. They are durable and made from certified wood. Since our founding 80 years ago, we have been continuously improving our roof windows for the benefit of the general public. But we can still improve it. That is why we have set ourselves ambitious goals. We will be Lifetime Carbon Neutral by 2041 and at the same time have improved the sustainability of our products. We will add new features and improve the materials used. Our roof windows will be smarter with a minimized CO₂ footprint. In 2030, a VELUX roof window will be manufactured with 50% less CO₂ emissions and the packaging will be plastic-free and made of 100% recyclable individual material. How come? Because it is our nature - and it is in our nature. Together with the WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature) we capture our past CO 2 emissions through forest protection. We will also reduce our future CO 2 emissions from our entire value chain in order to achieve the 1.5 degree target of the Paris Agreement. We call this Lifetime Carbon Neutral. "We are determined to be Lifetime Carbon Neutral by 2041 by capturing 100 years of CO 2 emissions and reducing our future CO 2 footprint." - David Briggs, CEO of the VELUX Group What are we going to do? Durch Investitionen in Waldschutzprojekte von 2020 bis 2041 werden wir das Äquivalent des gesamten CO2-Fußabdrucks der VELUX Gruppe im Laufe unserer 100-jährigen Firmengeschichte einfangen. Mehr erfahren Warum Waldprojekte mit dem WWF? Die Aufforstung und Erhaltung von Wäldern ist eine effiziente Möglichkeit, Kohlenstoff aus der Luft zu binden und die biologische Vielfalt weltweit zu schützen. Der WWF weiß, wo neue Bäume benötigt werden und wo alte erhalten bleiben müssen. Mehr erfahren Warum das 1,5-Grad-Ziel? Die Klimawissenschaft zeigt auf, dass es notwendig ist, die globale Erwärmung auf 1,5 °C gegenüber vorindustriellem Niveau zu begrenzen. Daher sind wir entschlossen, unsere zukünftigen Emissionen zu senken, um dieses Ziel zu erreichen, und die Veränderung der globalen Klimaschutzmaßnahmen der Unternehmen voranzutreiben. Die Science Based Target Initiative (SBTi) hat unsere Ziele genehmigt, die in Einklang mit dem Übereinkommen von Paris zum 1,5-Grad-Ziel stehen. Mehr erfahren Warum Lifetime Carbon Neutral? This is the first step in achieving our goals for the Sustainability Strategy 2030. It determines how we make our company - our organization, our products and our future value chain - more sustainable in order to create a better future for future generations. It's our nature.
