Our sustainability framework - For the Better 2030 - differentiates Electrolux as an industry leader and enables us to make a difference in society.
It covers our entire value chain – from our own operations and suppliers, to the use phase and end of life of our products. Through For the Better 2030, we are working toward bold 2030 Goals and climate neutrality throughout our value chain by 2050.
By focusing on our major impacts, we will prevent millions of metric tons of greenhouse gases from entering the atmosphere. This is our roadmap to become climate neutral throughout the value chain by 2050.
