Climate Action
Our journey to address environmental impact through CO₂ emissions reductions.
- ASICS' targets and initiatives
- Our net-zero 2050 target
- Managing the environmental impacts of manufacturing
- Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions
- Reducing scope 3 CO₂ emissions
- Transparency on the impact of our products
ASICS' targets and initiatives
Targets
- Absolute CO₂ emissions reduction rate in direction operations (scope 1&2): 63% by 2030 (2015 baseline).
- Absolute CO₂ emissions reduction rate from purchased goods and services and end-of-life treatment of sold products (scope 3) : 42% by 2030 (2022 baseline) *.
- Electricity percentage from renewable sources in own operations: 100% by 2030.
* To reflect more accurate emission data, we revised our calculation methodology, updated the base year to 2022, and recalibrated our target accordingly. The target remains aligned with a 1.5°C target level.
Action plan onward
- Work with suppliers to reduce CO2 emissions based on new Green Procurement Policy and new Material Procurement Policy.
- Continue CO₂ labeling of ASICS’ products.
- Continue to expand the use of electricity from renewable sources, focusing on the facilities withhigher emissions.
- Develop clear roadmap to achieve 100% by 2030.
Our net-zero 2050 target
We support ongoing global efforts to limit average temperature increases to 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels and aim for a collective net-zero world by 2050.
Managing the environmental impacts of manufacturing
Supply chain manufacturing accounts for more than 65% of our overall environmental impacts. For apparel, the impacts are associated with manufacturing processes, and washing while the products are in use. We are committed to using our influence within our supply chain to reduce these impacts.
Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions
We work to reduce our GHG emissions within both the direct scope of our own operations and the wider indirect scope. We commit to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions from our own operations 63% by 2030 from a 2015 base year.
Reducing scope 3 CO₂ emissions
We measure scope 3 CO₂ emissions across global operations to assess the impact of changes in our business operations.
Transparency on the impact of our products
Our carbon footprint labeling reflects our commitment to transparency around our CO₂ emissions. Understanding impact is the first step towards making better choices.
