We're on track towards our 2030 climate commitment
The financial year 2021 included both challenges and important movements towards the IKEA 2030 commitments. From increased use of renewable energy across the value chain to our forest positive pledge, the IKEA Sustainability Report for FY21 confirms we are making steady progress towards our People and Planet Positive goals.
The IKEA Sustainability Report FY21 is issued by Inter IKEA Group and covers the collective efforts from the contributors in the IKEA franchise system and value chain.
Although the effects of the pandemic continued, nearly all stores re-opened, welcoming almost 775 million customers, and everyday life returned to something more familiar.
Important sustainability achievements in FY21 include improvements throughout the value chain to further reduce the IKEA climate footprint in absolute terms compared to baseline FY16, the launch of a new public online circular product design tool, and taking a big step towards using only renewable energy across the value chain.
With two-thirds of the time left to 2030, we are on track and have reached one-third of our emission reduction through many short- and medium-term movements. We also have plans in place to address our longer-term movements and remaining complex challenges, such as the climate footprint of the materials used in the IKEA range.
