- Difficulty in collecting high-quality data from suppliers for GHG inventory and LCAs due to complex supply chains and lack of data availability from many sub-suppliers.
- Challenges in developing sustainable packaging due to requirements of Nordic Swan Ecolabel certification, odor, and packaging robustness.
- Increased Scope 2 emissions due to increased office time in 2022 compared to 2021 (home-working during COVID-19).
- Erroneous waste sorting in the office despite 100% communal waste sorting implementation.

✅ Reported Environmental Achievements
- Reduced Scope 1 CO2e emissions from 2.39 t to 1.96 t
- Reduced Scope 2 CO2e emissions from 4.8 t to 8.11 t (Note: this seems to be an error in the report, as emissions increased)
- Initiated projects exploring alternative packaging materials (paper pulp, compressed wood fibers, biodegradable seaweed plastic, coffee grounds), although none reached market due to various challenges.
- Implemented 100% communal waste sorting in the office.
🎯 Climate & Sustainability Targets
🔜 Short-term
- Reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 50% by 2030 (compared to 2020 baseline).
📅 Medium-term
- 100% closed-loop packaging by 2030.
- Perform LCAs of all products by 2030.
🔭 Long-term
- Achieve Net Zero by 2040 (reducing Scope 3 emissions by at least 90% by 2040).
