Climate

Commitment: Reduce greenhouse gas emissions

LVMH has mapped out a carbon trajectory in line with the Paris Agreement, approved by a leading international third party (the Science Based Targets initiative):

For scope 1 and 2, we aim to achieve a 50% reduction in energy‑related greenhouse gas emissions by 2026 (baseline: 2019). The Group’s actions are concentrated on improving the environmental profile of stores, which represent the main source of the Group’s energy consumption, and greater use of renewable energies at production and logistics sites, administrative sites and stores with a target of 100% renewable and low‑carbon Energy by 2026.

For scope 3 emissions, we aim for a 55% reduction in emissions per unit of added value by 2030 (baseline 2019). The Group’s actions are concentrated on lowering the carbon footprint of raw materials, transportation, waste, product usage and end‑of‑life treatment.

Packaging

LVMH aims to eliminate virgin fossil plastics in packaging that reaches customers by 2026. To achieve this target, we are working to use recycled plastics, use bio‑sourced plastics and replace plastics with other materials. By 2030, 70% of packaging materials that reaches customers is to be recycled.

Commitment: Act for nature through sustainable ingredient sourcing
