Sustainability reporting is not about showing that everything is perfect. It’s about seeing more clearly where we can improve.

For Alvi Group, 2025 was an important step in that direction. We have strengthened the way we measure, understand and work with sustainability across the group — from energy use and material flows to supplier data and waste management.

Better data, better decisions

One of the most important developments this year is the move towards better data.

In previous years, parts of our climate accounting were based on spend-based estimates. That means emissions were calculated based on how much we paid for materials or services.

In 2025, we have taken a more precise approach: measuring more based on actual activity, such as kilos of material used and waste treatment data.

This matters because better data leads to better decisions.

In 2025, 73.9% of our Scope 3 emissions were calculated using primary or activity-based data. This gives us a stronger foundation for understanding where emissions occur and where we can take action.

Collaboration across the value chain

The report also shows why collaboration across the value chain is essential.

Our Scope 3 emissions account for the majority of our climate footprint — approximately 14,000 tonnes CO₂e, or around 83% of our reported emissions. By comparison, Scope 2 accounts for approximately 2,858 tonnes CO₂e, or around 17%.

This means that while energy measures in our own operations are important, the largest improvements will require collaboration with suppliers, transport partners and customers.

Progress in our own operations

At the same time, we are making progress in our own operations.

In 2025, our market-based Scope 2 emissions were reduced by 17.7%. Investments such as solar energy are visible and important steps, but they are only part of the picture.

The bigger challenge is to connect energy, materials, design choices and supplier collaboration into one continuous improvement process.

Making material use more circular

Material use is another important focus area.

In 2025, Alvi Group used 2,615 tonnes of material.
Having better data allows us to optimize how these resources flow through our business.

Our goal is twofold: maximizing the material that becomes finished goods, and ensuring that any remaining production waste is systematically recovered and diverted into new value streams.

Sustainability becomes practical

This transparency is where sustainability becomes practical.

It is not only about targets and reporting frameworks. It is about asking better questions earlier in the process:

• Can we reduce waste?
• Can we use material more efficiently?
• Can production scrap be reused?
• Can design choices reduce the footprint before production even starts?

Always Improve

Our approach is closely connected to our culture of Always Improve.

Sustainability at Alvi Group is not a separate track. It is part of how we improve quality, efficiency, resource use and long-term competitiveness.

We know we still have work to do. But with better data, clearer priorities and stronger collaboration, we are building a more precise foundation for progress.

We are proud to announce a significant step forward in our commitment to sustainability and renewable energy. As part of our long-term environmental strategy, we have successfully completed the installation of a large-scale solar energy system on the roof of our facility in Suzhou, China. The energy system has a total capacity of 1,256 kWh.

The project was executed in two phases. Phase 1, covering 6,500 square meters, went live on January 30th, 2024. Phase 2, which added another 1,100 square meters, was commissioned on September 12th, 2024. In total, our rooftop now supports 7,600 square meters of solar panels – a powerful symbol of our commitment to cleaner energy.

The system is estimated to generate approximately 1.2 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity annually. This production will cover around 18% of our total power consumption, significantly reducing our dependency on non-renewable energy sources.

This investment reflects both our responsibility and ambition to lead by example in reducing our environmental footprint

– Harnessing the power of the sun allows us to make a tangible contribution toward a more sustainable future, says Mr. Fredrik Carlsson.

In addition to reducing our reliance on fossil fuels, this solar installation will also contribute to a substantial reduction in CO₂ emissions with 1300 tons CO₂ saved annually. The energy produced each year is equivalent to the carbon offset of 1800 trees planted, making a measurable impact on our environmental goals.

This project marks a major milestone in our sustainability journey, but it is by no means the end. We remain dedicated to exploring further opportunities to improve our energy efficiency and reduce our environmental impact across all areas of our operations.

Together, we’re investing in a cleaner, greener tomorrow.
