Carbon footprint policy and carbon reduction plan

Provital is experiencing rapid growth, so it is a challenge to prevent our company's growth from leading to increased emissions. Our Carbon footprint policy and carbon reduction plan is based on transparency in terms of what we have achieved so far, and on taking responsibility for what remains to be done in terms of our environmental management.

Provital is known for providing clear, well-documented scientific data on the quality and effectiveness of our products. We want to bring the same level of scientific rigor and clarity to our communications on sustainability.

Our carbon footprint management plan is aligned with these priorities. It is a rigorous and transparent plan, based not on vague goals, wishful thinking or future technologies, but on setting ourselves carbon reduction targets that are backed up by detailed operational planning and concrete initiatives. However, we see this management plan as a work in progress to be continually improved upon.

Below are a few key points we would like to share with you regarding our carbon footprint:

•      Provital is an SME with a relatively small carbon footprint. Most of our emissions are Scope 3 and are related to the purchase of our raw materials and the transportation of our finished product.

•      In this plan, we explain two carbon reduction targets. The first is an intensity target. We commit to reducing our carbon emissions intensity (measured in terms of CO₂ per kg of product manufactured) by 33–50% by 2030. The second target is the absolute reduction of our Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 42% by 2030, in line with the Paris Agreement.

We understand that reducing Scope 3 emissions is a challenge for our customers, and that we can support them in this by providing clear and transparent data on our emissions, our products, and our carbon reduction. We therefore invite our customers to contact us for more details on our carbon footprint management.
