SUSTAINABILITY
Carbon Reduction Roadmap
Quantum Profile Systems Ltd (QPSL) recognises that its processes and products have an impact on the environment, and it is committed
to improving its performance through various sustainable practices. This has led to the production of a Carbon Reduction Roadmap, which lays out the company’s general aims, along with specific targets for 2025 and 2035.
This Roadmap provides details, insights, and data to show and explain the challenges a manufacturer has to face in reducing carbon
emissions. This includes Scope 1 and 2 emissions, which can be directly affected by the environmental practices of the company itself, but also looks into Scope 3 emissions, which affect the carbon footprint of a product but may be largely out of a company’s control.
