- Challenging economic environment leading to a contraction of -20.5% (excluding one-off effect in the medical market)
- High emissions from process gases (e.g., SF6) in sensor production
- Scope 3 emissions, particularly from procurement of goods and services
- Potential supply chain disruptions due to extreme weather events
- Regulatory changes regarding product properties, processes, and materials (e.g., PFAS)
