About our cooperation

Bufab is a C-parts supplier to Steelcase.

Challenge

In response to the increasing urgency of climate change, Steelcase set science-based targets in 2020, including a commitment to engage 80% of its suppliers by emissions to set their own science-based targets by 2025.

Approach

Collective action is more impactful than independent action; Steelcase enables collective action through its supplier engagement program.

Bufab supports Steelcase as a trusted partner and valued supplier.

Result

In November 2022, Bufab adopted science-based climate targets aligned with the Paris Agreement. Approved by the Science-Based Targets Initiative, our targets ensure a net-zero emissions operation by 2030 and a 55% reduction in scope 3 by 2031.

It is inspiring to improve together!
