GRAZ, FEBRUARY 14, 2024.  Metsä Group and technology supplier ANDRITZ have
agreed to work together to reduce Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions. Scope
3 emissions refer to emissions from the company’s value chain and
purchases, such as emissions during the sourcing of production equipment
and raw materials and the transportation and use of manufactured products.
The goal of the multi-year cooperation is to increase the effectiveness of
emission reductions and to find completely new ways to reduce greenhouse
gas emissions.

The companies have established a project group that will determine the
most significant development targets, metrics and goals during 2024, with
which the total emissions of the value chain can be reduced.

“The collaboration is a significant step for both companies. It shows how
important part of our sustainability work is to reduce emissions from the
value chain and sourcing. Together, we will find new ways to manage
greenhouse emissions that would not necessarily be recognized if companies
were operating independently,” says Jari Voutilainen, SVP Sourcing and
Logistics at Metsä Group.

“ANDRITZ is strongly committed to developing innovative solutions in
cooperation with Metsä Group, so that we can achieve our sustainability
goals together. This partnership with Metsä Group not only reflects our
commitment to advanced greenhouse gas emission management methods, which
are an integral part of our sustainability strategy, but also enables the
implementation of more effective emission reduction methods, which would
be much more challenging if acting alone,” says Ari-Pekka Määttänen, SVP
EMEA at ANDRITZ Pulp & Paper.
