manitou group unveils its low carbon plans for 2030

26/1/2022

The Manitou Group has recently unveiled the two main targets of its 2030 low carbon trajectory, namely reduce its direct and indirect carbon emissions by 46%, while reducing the CO2 emissions of its machines by 34% for every hour of use.

This approach is based on scientific data through the “Science Based Targets” initiative, a program supported by the United Nations, the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World-Wide Fund for Nature (WWF).

Using 2019 as the benchmark year, the first target applicable in scopes 1 and 2 involves reducing direct and indirect CO2emissions by 46% by 2030 throughout all its worldwide locations. The second target concerns the emissions in scope 3 (value chain), with a 34% reduction in the CO2 emissions generated for every hour of use of the machines produced by the Group.

Michel Denis, President and CEO, explains: “It’s an extremely important and transformative stage for the Group. Climate issues are a genuine concern, but also an opportunity to reinforce our competitive edge by transitioning to a low carbon intensity economy. We are doing everything to steer the ecological transition towards a more sustainable economic model. We have set ambitious yet realistic targets that we can achieve by innovating with our customers, suppliers, and employees. 89% of our indirect emissions come from the use of our products. It is therefore a collective approach for the whole value chain.”

To accomplish these targets, Manitou Group will rely on a number of tactics:
  • Develop new electric ranges and innovate with hydrogen
  • Continue the work already undertaken on the energy efficiency of equipment
  • Reinforce eco-design with a global life cycle approach
  • Increase the use of recycled materials in purchases of components and parts
  • Use low-carbon solutions for upstream and downstream freight
  • Develop the activity of spare parts from the circular economy
  • Reduce energy consumption and roll out a green energy procurement program
Registered on the SBTi website, the Manitou Group’s low carbon pathway will be studied by experts in the Science Based Targets initiative with a view to confirming it, hopefully by the end of the half-year. The Group can further promote this action plan during the annual CSR event “On the way up”.
