Report profile
With this sustainability report, Arbonia is publishing non-financial information on its operating activities for the fifth time (date of publication: 4 March 2025).
It thereby enshrines ecological, social, and economic sustainability in its corporate development. Arbonia documents its impact on the climate and the environment, specifies strategic sustainability targets, and reports on the degree of target achievement for the material topics. The information includes overarching management approaches for the entire Group. In addition, the targets and measures are described on the level of individual companies. The scope of consolidation of the sustainability report is given on here.
This report has been created in accordance with the 2021 GRI standards. All information refers to the reporting period from 1 January to 31 December 2024 (in analogy to the financial reporting). The indicators were selected based on a materiality analysis in which various internal and external stakeholders were surveyed. Nine material topics were defined as the result. Further guidelines for the content structure are recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations, as well as ESG rating analyses. This also fulfils the Swiss requirements regarding transparency in non-financial matters.
The key environmental figures of this sustainability report include the resource consumption of all manufacturing companies of Arbonia as well as the Corporate Center in Arbon, Switzerland. This excludes the new acquisitions in 2024. Alongside information about its direct (Scope 1) and indirect energy-related emissions (Scope 2), Arbonia provides extensive data about its upstream and downstream value-added chain (Scope 3) in this report. Pure administration and distribution companies are not included due to their low environmental impact. The key figures in relation to employees include all companies. There is an annual reporting cycle – the last report was published on 27 February 2024. Due to the effective requirements of the Swiss Code of Obligations Article 964a ff., this report is divided into a mandatory part and a voluntary part. The sustainability report has been created on behalf of Group Management and approved by the Board of Directors. It is not subject to any external audit.
