2.1 Net zero target year

*

*
2022

2.2 Near-term target

*

50% of absolute total emission reduction from my base year by 2030

2.3 Provide any additional comments or context on your net zero and near term targets.

*
We began measuring our Carbon Footprint in 2022 and are about to start collecting data for our fourth measurement. As it stands, we are on track to reach the 2030 goal of 50% and have begun looking forward to our Real Net Zero goal by looking into the material composition of our products.

Own Emissions *

3.1 To reduce emissions in line with my commitment, my company has a plan and is taking action

*
Yes

Energy consumption

3.2 Total energy consumption

*
122199 kwh

3.3 Renewable energy

*
122199 kwh

Scope 1 emissions

3.4 Scope 1 emissions

*
20.6 metric tons CO2e

Scope 2 emissions

3.5 Location based scope 2 emissions

*
25.3 metric tons CO2e

3.7 Describe your plans and actions taken to reduce scope 1 & 2 emissions.

*
We have moved to a deep green tariff with SmartestEnergy and are supplied with certified 100% renewable energy. We have also replaced all lighting with LEDs, as well as replacing old boilers with energy-efficient models - these changes were originally a part of our Action Plan that was created by a third-party specialist, Green Small Business, who have supported us on our journey since 2022.

3.8 Describe the calculation methodology and comment on the data accuracy, including any tools/methods used to calculate.

*
Green Small Business provide us with an Excel that covers all three scopes emissions sources. Once complete, they calculate our Carbon Footprint following the GHG Protocol. All data provided is 100% accurate and not estimated.

Value Chain Emissions (optional) *

Scope 3 emissions

4.1 Have you measured any of your scope 3 emissions?

*
Yes

4.1.1 Total scope 3 emissions

*
785.5 metric tons CO2e

Supply chain related - upstream emissions

4.1.2 Purchased goods and services

*
502.8 metric tons CO2e

4.1.3 Capital goods

*
7.9 metric tons CO2e

4.1.4 Fuel and energy related activities

*
12.3 metric tons CO2e

4.1.5 Transportation and distribution (upstream)

*
33 metric tons CO2e

4.1.6 Waste in operations

*
1.1 metric tons CO2e

4.1.7 Business travel

*
67.3 metric tons CO2e

4.1.8 Employee commuting

*
34.6 metric tons CO2e

Customer related - downstream emissions

4.1.10 Transportation and distribution (downstream)

*
126.2 metric tons CO2e

4.1.17 Do you have a plan and are taking action to reduce emissions from your value chain?

*

Yes

We have identified that Material Use is, by far, our biggest emitter. Without making drastic changes to the material composition of our products, reaching our Real Net Zero target would be unrealistic. As such, Phill, ALLpaQ's Director, has begun initial talks with customers to scope out the reception of a partially recycled product, while our Sustainability Team sought out a third-party plastic specialist, PS Partnerships, who will provide material selection recommendations for alternative material solutions with a lower carbon footprint.

4.2 Have you asked any of your suppliers to set a net zero target (either voluntarily or as a requirement)?

*
No

4.3 Have you communicated your commitment and actions to any of your customers?

*
Yes

4.4 Describe the calculation methodology and comment on the data accuracy and any tools used to calculate your scope 3 emissions.

*
Green Small Business provide us with an Excel that covers all three scopes emissions sources. Once complete, they calculate our Carbon Footprint following the GHG Protocol. All data provided is 100% accurate and not estimated.

Climate Solutions (optional) *

5.1 Do you classify any of your existing goods and/or services as a climate solution?

*

7.2 Do you face any key challenges in reducing emissions?

*

Reducing scope 3 emissions,Reducing emissions from business travel,Balancing emission reductions with business growth,Complexities in managing supply chain emissions,Insufficient funding,Limited influence over suppliers,Other challenges (please specify)
