Fiskars Group as a sustainable investment

Pioneering design embraces sustainability – from ideation to sourcing, manufacturing, and business development. We want to offer inspiring and disruptive alternatives for throwaway culture, and take climate action by reducing emissions in line with a 1.5 ºC future.

Sustainability is one of the strategic growth enablers for Fiskars Group. We ensure sustainable and profitable growth by setting concrete ESG targets and linking those to our decision-making. We believe that a well-managed sustainability agenda creates competitive advantage and opportunities, reduces risks, and addresses societal challenges by creating innovative solutions and helping us to attract and engage the best talent.

Our two commitments, pioneering design against throwaway culture and making the everyday extraordinary, guide all our decisions and we monitor our progress frequently.

LONG-TERM NET ZERO TARGET

Our plan is to reduce climate emissions to net zero by 2049, which also marks the Group’s 400th anniversary year. Net-zero for Fiskars Group means reducing total emissions (Scope 1,2 & 3) by at least 90%.

Sustainability-linked bond

We have tied our emission reductions targets to our long-term financing strategy by launching a Sustainability-linked bond framework and issuing our debut bond of EUR 200 million under this framework in 2023.

The financial characteristics of the bond are linked to the achievement of two of our main ESG targets: reducing GHG emissions from Fiskars Group’s own operations (Scope 1 and 2) and percentage of suppliers by spend with set science-based emissions reduction targets (Scope 3).
