Climate transition strategy 

glossário - Futuro / Atuação responsável US

The Klabin 2030 Agenda prioritizes climate management among its key topics. In 2023, an important step in facing this issue was the launch of the company's Climate Transition Plan. The document, available on the IR website, the ESG Dashboard and the CVM website, consolidates information on Klabin's climate mitigation and adaptation goals and actions.. It summarizes the management of the problem within the Company and its initiatives to achieve decarbonization goals, including the net-zero commitment and the submission of a new target to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) for transitioning to the 1.5oC scenario, considering a reduction to the Company's absolute scope 1, 2 and 3 GHG emissions.

undefined

Created in 2008, it is responsible for adapting the GHG Protocol method to the Brazilian context and for developing calculation tools for greenhouse gas emission estimates.

SEE GLOSSARY

The document also meets a criterion of the CDP, a global information platform for investors: transparency and accessibility of the Climate Transition Plan to stakeholders. 

Achieving corporate net-zero emission targets means reducing scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions to zero or to a residual level (a reduction of at least 90%), consistent with achieving global or sectoral net-zero emissions in eligible 1.5°C scenarios or sectoral pathways, and neutralizing any residual emissions by the net-zero target date and any greenhouse gas emissions released into the atmosphere thereafter.

GOVERNANCE

The agenda of the Board of Directors includes climate change issues. ESG targets are linked to the variable compensation of executives.

RISK MANAGEMENT AND OPPORTUNITIES

Scenario analysis identifies and assesses the impact of climate risks and opportunities on business performance.

STRATEGIES FOR TRANSITIONAL AND PHYSICAL RISKS

Resilience and financial planning are Klabin's strategies to manage the transitional risks associated with regulatory change.

METRICS AND TARGETS

Klabin's GHG inventories are verified annually by an independent third party. The update of the science-based targets takes into account the 1.5°C increase scenario and the inclusion of new scope 3 categories based on business relevance.

DECARBONIZATION STRATEGY

Replacing fossil fuel consumption with renewable fuels in the Company's operations. Engaging suppliers and customers is part of Klabin's decarbonization strategy, which includes emissions from the entire value chain.

Public climate commitments

TCFD

Since 2020, the Company has been following the recommendations of the TCFD, disclosing current and potential risks arising from ongoing climate change, and also incorporating into its strategy and financial planning the business opportunities presented in this scenario. 

SBTi

The initiative establishes methodologies to help companies design emission reduction targets based on climate science and sustainable economic development. 

NetZero ImPact Movement

The result of a partnership between Klabin and the Brazil Network of the UN Global Compact. Its purpose is to invite companies to evaluate the adoption of science-based GHG reduction targets and encourage society to engage in the sustainability cause. 

Business Ambition for 1.5oC 

UN campaign that gathers about 200 companies worldwide to limit the temperature increase on the planet to no more than 1,5oC until 2030. Klabin is among the initiative’s 11 participants in Brazil. 

We Mean Business

Since 2021, Klabin has been part of the global coalition that brings together the business sector to control the effects of global warming. The initiative proposes the establishment of a low-carbon economy. 

Low carbon technologies 

glossário - Futuro / Tecnologias de baixo carbono

The adoption of is one of Klabin's action fronts for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The Marginal Abatement Cost Curve (MACC) is an important tool used to identify, in a practical manner, the technological options under study, their costs, and potential greenhouse gas (GHG) emission mitigation. 
 

An example of this type of technology is the gasification plant installed at the Puma Unit in Ortigueira (PR), which resulted in approximately 56,000 tons of avoided during operation in 2023. The technology enables the replacement of fossil fuel usage with syngas, a gas generated from wood biomass, increasing the share of renewable fuels in the Company's energy matrix. 

low-carbon technologies

Processes, equipment, systems, and resources that aim to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2).

SEE GLOSSARY

biomass

All organic matter of plant or animal origin used for the purpose of producing energy.

SEE GLOSSARY

CO2eq

Carbon dioxide equivalent is the unit for converting all greenhouse gases (GHGs) in terms equivalent to the amount of as if they were CO2, considering their planet-warming potential. It is the result of multiplying the tons of GHG emissions by their global warming potential.
