With corporate sustainability goals,
companies tend to aim for incremental
improvements to “do better.”
With absolute sustainability,
companies look to science to know
what is necessary.
But is it good enough?It’s better.

Setting bold climate commitments brings value
Strengthen investor
confidence and credibility
Improve profitability and
competitiveness
Increase brand reputation
Companies taking a leadership position
on climate bolster their credibility and
reputation among stakeholders, incl.
investors, customers, employees, policy
makers and environmental groups.
Setting a Science-Based Target is
recognized by CDP and is required to
achieve an A score.
Setting ambitious targets now ensures
a lean, efficient, and durable company
in a future where resources become
increasingly more expensive. Rising
prices of raw materials can mean the
difference between profit and loss.
Defining bold and robust commitments
increases credibility. It helps attract the
talent that will lead tomorrow's innovation
as the transition to a low-carbon economy
catalyses new developments

Benchmark : Science-Based Targets Initiative: Who’s in?
• Many companies have committed to set or already defined Science-Based Targets.
• Science-Based Targets must be medium to long-term (5 to 15 years after the submission date), cover the full
value chain and lead to absolute reductions in line with 2°C pathways.
• Companies that set such targets require well defined roadmaps tackling the entire value chain.

Since 1996, 99% renewably sourced energy in our manufacturing sites
in the US and Europe, 89% less water usage at manufacturing sites
100% renewable electricity use
13 millions pounds of used carpet recovered, recycled and reused

38. In 2016, IPI developed a Standard to allow Corporates engaged in
Insetting to have their programs and projects certified and registered
PROBLEM
Deforestation: for the past 15 years, we’ve been losing 0.5% of the
world’s forest each year. If we continue at this rate, in 200 years
there won’t be any forests left.
SOLUTION
Assisting companies in integrated climate action (Insetting) and socio-
environmental projects through agroforestry and land restoration

companies, impact investors and certification agencies and exchange

20,500 LITERS of AIR-INK™
2 tonnes worth air pollution PM 2.5 neutralized
Graviky Labs
PROBLEM
Air pollution: one of the largest threats to the health of humans and
the environment. 2 million people die from air pollution each year
and many fast-growing cities in Asia are well above WHO’s
recommended air pollution levels.
SOLUTION
The KAALINK™, a device that captures up to ~99% of particulate
matter from an engine without inducing back pressure in the vehicle.
These captured pollutants are then transformed into ink.
