Roto climate target by 2030

The Roto Group has set a climate target: By 2030, we aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 50% across the group worldwide in Scope 1 and 2, compared to the base year 2022. This applies to our entire energy consumption, whether generated on-site or sourced from energy providers. In Scope 3, which covers emissions from our upstream and downstream value chain, we are aiming for a reduction of 25%. Through a series of targeted measures based on our sustainability strategy, we will also contribute to reducing the carbon footprint of our customers and partners.

Roto Klimaziel bis 2030

 

Die Roto Gruppe hat sich ein Klimaziel gesetzt: Bis 2030 werden wir die Treibhausgasemissionen gegenüber dem Ausgangsjahr 2022 gruppenweit und weltweit zu 50% in Scope 1 und 2 reduzieren. Das betrifft unseren gesamten Energiebedarf, den wir an unseren Standorten selbst erzeugen oder von Energieerzeugern beziehen. In Scope 3, der die Emissionen unserer vor- und nachgelagerten Wertschöpfungskette umfasst, streben wir eine Verringerung um 25% an. Mit einer Reihe von zielgerichteten Maßnahmen auf Basis unserer Nachhaltigkeitsstrategie werden wir somit auch dazu beitragen, den CO2-Fußabdruck unserer Kunden und Partner zu verringern.

Conserving resources through repair & refurbishment

By repairing and refurbishing existing windows, skylights and front doors, we make a significant contribution to conserving resources. Instead of replacing old elements with new ones, we extend the service life of the installed elements. This not only reduces waste, but also conserves valuable raw materials.

Our contribution: regionality & low travel costs

Our service technicians are distributed throughout the DACH region, which enables us to be on site quickly and efficiently. This regional presence helps to keep travelling costs low and at the same time reduces the CO2 footprint of our assignments. Short journeys mean less fuel consumption and therefore fewer emissions.
