Data Driven Achievements

A pivotal moment in our sustainability journey arrived in July 2025, when we had our near-term, Net-Zero, and FLAG (Farming, Lands, and Agricultural) targets formally validated by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). This independent validation confirms that our long-term goals are ambitious, credible, and aligned with climate science.

Progress on Emissions Reductions

In 2018, we set a target to reduce our Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 20% by 2025. To the end of 2024, we have achieved a 20.54% reduction in our absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions, and through the Energy Saving Opportunity Scheme, we have already identified a path to a further 10% of savings.

The validation of our new Science-Based Targets gives us the confidence to set a more ambitious goal for the next five years: to reduce our absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 54.6% by 2030 (from a 2022 base year).

What
we’ve done

  • WBIX_SUST_ICON15

    Achieved a major milestone by having our near-term, Net-Zero, and FLAG targets validated by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) in July 2025.

  • WBIX_SUST_ICON14

    Reduced our absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 20.54% towards our 2025 target.

  • Adopted the “HowGood” software system to improve carbon footprint reporting and supplier selection.

What
we’re doing

  • Working towards our new, ambitious SBTivalidated target to reduce Scope 1 & 2 GHG emissions by 54.6% by 2033.

  • Actively assessing alternative energy sources, including solar, hydrogen, and biogas, to power our sites.

  • Continuing to use our procurement process to influence and reduce our Scope 3 emissions across our supply chain.

"Securing SBTi validation was the starting gun, not the finish line. It solidifies our net-zero commitment and empowers our team to focus on the critical engineering work ahead – from pioneering new energy sources to building a truly low-carbon supply chain."
