Sustainability goals: The Alfa Laval sustainability strategy is organized around four central themes – Climate, Circularity, Caring, Committed – and sets the agenda and key sustainability priorities for the business to focus on until 2030. Group targets are in place for all material issues, some with a deadline in 2025, others in 2030. Science-based carbon emission reduction targets have been set for the near term and a net-zero emissions target for 2050 covering the full value chain.

Reaching net zero by 2027:

• Alfa Laval has committed to net zero target for scope 1 and 2 in our own operations already by 2027 (compared with a 2020 baseline)
• For scope 3 a 50% reduction in our value chains by 2030.
• We remain committed to the net zero target across all scopes by 2050 - in line with the UN Paris Agreement.

Highlighted project(s) in Spain/Sweden: Alfa Laval technology lays foundations for meeting rising demand for sustainable aviation fuel by means of advanced feedstock Alfa Laval has won a contract to supply innovative pretreatment technology that will be key to producing hundreds of thousands of tonnes of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) every year at southern Europe’s largest biofuel facility. Construction on a new plant at the facility in Huelva, Spain, began in February this year, and once up and running in 2026, it will represent a groundbreaking move to increase biofuel production to meet increasing global demand for SAF, delivered by a joint venture between MOEVE - Cepsa Bioenergia San Roque (CBSR) and Bio-Oils Energy, part of Apical Group.
