Goal 1

Core Business
By 2030, we reduce our tCO2eq emissions (Scope 1 & 2) by at least 80 % compared with 2023, in line with the Science Based Target Initiative (SBTi).*
* We achieve this by converting our vehicle fleet to fossil-free drive systems and procuring electricity and heating/cooling from largely renewable sources. Feasibility review of joining the SBTi by the end of 2026, see also 2nd environmental target.

Goal 2

Core Business
By 2030, we reduce our tCO2eq emissions in Scope 3 by 20 % compared with 2023, in line with the Science Based Target Initiative (SBTi).*
* We achieve this by switching to lower tCO2eq, recyclable and fossil-free products. Priority 1: Non-medical products with high tCO2eq emissions, high turnover, relatively easy substitution potential: e.g. towels, napkins, toilet paper, incontinence and care products Priority 2: Products with high tCO2eq emissions, high turnover, medium substitution potential (medical and non-medical products) Priority 3: Predominantly medical products, longer planning horizon, more difficult to convert.

Goal 3

Supply Chain
By 2030, suppliers of 75 % of our purchasing volume are assessed according to ESG criteria based on the Global Reporting Initiative and have a ‘good’ to ‘very good’ ESG rating.*
* As a logistics company, we commit to ensuring that all suppliers meet the highest sustainability standards by 2035 in order to make our supply chain more climate-friendly and socially responsible. This includes continuous assessment and close collaboration with our key suppliers to promote sustainability and ethical business practices.

Goal 4

Collective action
By 2026 and yearly after that, all employees receive annual training on sustainability topics and each team develops collective sustainability initiatives.*
* The aim is for every employee to understand and experience the ESG relevance of their working environment and to act more consciously accordingly.

Goal 5

Internal Operations
By 2025 and annually after that, we guarantee two apprenticeship places yearly for young people with special needs, and create a reliable bridge between the young people and the training companies to ensure lasting career prospects.*
* In addition to the two regular apprenticeships. For more information: https://cosanum.ch/it/stories/human-circularity
