Climate protection

GRI-Indicators

The KION Group intends to minimise its role in global warming, so it has committed itself in its ‘Climate protection’ action field to set a specific target by 2018 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and establish the programme required to achieve that. The KION Group is currently also working on analysing its overall corporate carbon footprint (Scope 1 to 3).

The introduction of the HSE network of experts and a KION Climate Championship are additional measures to achieve further progress through increased internal communication and the raising of employee awareness.

All measures follow this priority ranking: it will constantly strive to achieve a reduction in its CO2 emissions. If it cannot go any further, it will endeavour to substitute fuels with lower-emission fuels. And once this measure does not deliver further reductions either, it will then counter the impact of its CO2 emissions through offsetting measures.
