Our Planet

Our goals are ambitious, but they’re achievable.

First, we’ll cut the waste and the unnecessary emissions from our operations by harnessing renewable energy, electrifying our fleet, improving our energy efficiency, and empowering our people to make greener choices.

By 2030, we’ll have reached Net Zero on Scope 1 and 2 emissions from our operations.

By 2040, we’ll have achieved the same with our value chain by seizing every opportunity to make our products, our logistics, and our partner selection process more environmentally friendly.

Real change comes from pursuing realistic goals. We’re helping bridge the gap between ambition and reality by underpinning our Net Zero targets with concrete, science-based goals.

To achieve Net Zero, by 2030 we’ll need to achieve an 85% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions, and a 42% absolute reduction in Scope 3 emissions. 

We’ve reshaped the way we do business around Net Zero, implementing Net Zero focal points at ten of our major sites.

The volunteers at these focal points are there to push forward change, share crucial information, and provide support to local energy efficiency teams. Working alongside both our Head of Operations and Net Zero Director, they ensure that progress moves rapidly and consistently – and make sure each team gets the support they need, when they need it. 

HBK is part of the Spectris Group, which means our Net Zero targets are aligned with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

By building our strategy around these goals, we’re ensuring that our products, operations, and stakeholder engagement are optimifor sustainable and profitable long-term growth.
