Our Sustainability
Efforts
At Ellab, we’re actively formulating a comprehensive sustainability strategy that will aim to mitigate the climate impact of our operations and products while fostering diversity in our workplace and ensuring a responsible supply chain.
Ellab´s GHG Emissions and Trend (tCO2e)
As can be observed on the above chart, our Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions account for only 4% of the total emissions, with the remaining 96% attributed to Scope 3 emissions, from purchased goods and services, upstream transportation and distribution, and employee commuting.
At Ellab, we believe sustainability is about adapting to win in a constantly and radically changing environment. Over the long term, we aim to adopt a holistic strategy that considers the impact of the whole value chain.
How
We’re Managing
GHG Emissions
-
In 2024, 74% of the electricity powering our operations came from renewable sources. To address the remaining 26%, mainly from leased offices where we can’t choose the energy supplier, retired Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs) were purchased, ensuring 100% of our electricity use is covered by renewable energy.

We’re also pleased to share that we’ve adopted a new transition plan and supporting policy to ensure that our global fleet becomes almost entirely electric by 2030, keeping us on track to meet our Scope 1 SBTi targets.
In 2024, our Scope 3 emissions decreased by approximately 27% compared to 2022 and 2023. Despite increasing revenue, our spend-based analysis of purchased materials shows a clear downward trend in absolute emissions.2024 Ellab´s Group Electricity Consumption - MWh

Understanding
Our Environmental Footprint:
Life Cycle Assessment
Recognizing the importance of understanding our environmental footprint, we’ve initiated the implementation of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to quantify the impact of our products and services. This critical step will help us to identify and prioritize key environmental impacts or “hotspots” throughout the life cycle of a product or process and guide our efforts towards redesigning market solutions.
Building a Culture
of Compliance
and Integrity
Over the years, we’ve implemented a robust compliance program that ensures that the organization and its employees adhere to legal and regulatory standards, industry guidelines, ethical practices, and internal policies.
Enhancing Sustainability Through Improved Waste Management
Finally, our focus on waste management has yielded positive results. We’ve successfully increased the proportion of recycled waste from 20% to an average of 52% of total waste generated at our production site. Our objective is to maximize recycling rates further while implementing policies aimed at reducing overall material consumption, including virgin materials, not only for the HQ but also for our subsidiaries worldwide.
