WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER Throughout 2021, the pandemic continued to affect the world and our operations. Mostly, there were challenges. However, for our operations as a whole, there was a positive “stay-home” effect. Our sustainability journey has also continued and, thanks to our employees’ engagement, we achieved even better results than expected. Important to act here and now in large and small alike. Our carbon dioxide footprint (Greenhouse Gas Protocol scope 1 and 2 emissions) contracted by 30 percent in 2021. This is far better than the 1.5 degree goal stipulated in the Paris Agree- ment. The percentage of certified wood in our products reached almost 100 and our employee engagement index rose to a new record. During the year, we took the next step in the supply chain with the implementation of a requirements and expectations document covering the environment, working environment, employees and raw materials. It went to 135 suppliers representing 76 percent of all our direct material sourcing. We base our sustainability management on know ledge and facts. We know that our sustainability management is a journey. Its goal changes over time, but this makes it even more important to act here and now in large and small alike. Our employ- ees, suppliers and customers all have important roles in our operations and our development. Here, the key to success is collaboration and dialogue. We know that we are stronger together. The journey onwards will be pervaded by an increased focus on circularity, diversity and inclu- sion. We will also continue our ambition to improve sustainability throughout our value chain!
