Climate action
We are committed to the Paris Agreement and the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C. This means reducing our greenhouse gas emissions in line with climate science and taking responsibility for our value chain impact.
In January 2025, our near-term, long-term and net-zero targets were validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). These targets guide our journey toward achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
Our science-based targets
Near-term targets (to be achieved by 2030, using 2022 as the baseline year):
- Reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 60%.
- Reduce absolute Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from purchased goods and services, upstream and downstream transportation and distribution by 25%.
Long-term and net-zero targets (to be achieved by 2050, using 2022 as the baseline year):
- Reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 90%.
- Reduce absolute Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 90%.
- Achieve net-zero emissions across the entire value chain.
How we are taking action
We’re working to decarbonize both our own operations and the wider value chain. While Scope 1 and 2 emissions (from sources we own or control) make up a relatively small share of our total footprint, they’re an essential part of our action plan because we have direct control over them. These emissions mostly come from the energy used in our factories, stores, offices, and distribution centers.
The vast majority of our emissions fall under Scope 3 — from the goods and materials we purchase, the services we use, and the transportation and distribution of our products. These upstream and downstream impacts are where we must collaborate closely with our suppliers and logistics partners to drive meaningful progress.
In 2025, 86% of electricity consumed across our own sites came from renewable sources, up from 58% in 2024. We also reduced total transportation emissions by 6% compared to 2024, despite significant revenue growth — driven by a shift away from air freight toward sea freight. On the supply chain side, 22% of finished goods and raw material purchase volumes were produced with renewable energy in 2025, up from 13% in 2024, working toward our target of 50% by 2030.
Understanding our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
Following the GHG Protocol, greenhouse gas emissions are measured across three scopes:
Direct emissions caused by the use of fuels or refrigerant loss in own operations.
Indirect emissions from production of energy purchased and consumed in our own operations: electricity, heating, and cooling.
Indirect emissions occurring across our value chain, both upstream and downstream. For Amer Sports, the main sources are purchased goods and services (77% of total emissions), upstream transportation and distribution (8.3%), and end-of-life treatment of sold products (5.9%).
The Climate Program
Launched in 2024, Amer Sports’ Climate Program is our structured, Group-wide initiative to drive decarbonization across our own operations and throughout the supply chain. It brings together our brands and functions to take coordinated, measurable action toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
The program supports our commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. It provides a common framework to align climate efforts across the organization and ensures that all teams are equipped with the tools, data, and governance needed to accelerate progress. In 2026, we are developing an Amer Sports Climate Transition Plan to support progress toward our science-based targets.
Decarbonizing our operations
We are reducing emissions across our own operations by improving energy efficiency and transitioning to renewable energy. In 2024, 58% of the electricity used in our facilities — including factories, warehouses, offices, and stores — came from renewable sources. In 2025, that figure rose to 86%. Our target is to reach 100% renewable electricity by 2027.
Our site in Altenmarkt, Austria, which also serves as Atomic’s headquarters, is certified for its environmental management system (EMS) in accordance with ISO 14001. Altenmarkt is home to employees working across various brands, Amer Sports winter sports operations, and the supply chain. Since 2005, it has been heated using a biomass plant located next to the facility, and since 2014, it has been powered entirely by renewable electricity. Energy efficiency upgrades include LED lighting, heat recovery systems, and improved material recovery.
In Annecy, France, Salomon’s headquarters — the Annecy Design Center — is certified under both ISO 14001 (environmental management) and ISO 50001 (energy management). Since 2021, it has run on 100% renewable electricity.
Carbon footprint in 2025
We respond to the annual CDP Corporate Questionnaire to disclose our environmental impact. In 2025, we achieved Leadership level with an A- rating for Climate Change and Management level with a B- rating for Water Security, maintaining our A- Climate rating for the second consecutive year. We also achieved an A score in the CDP Supplier Engagement Assessment. Based on data disclosed, we demonstrated leadership in transparency and best practices in climate action, showing particular strengths in value chain engagements, target setting, emissions reduction initiatives, low-carbon products, as well as robust processes for climate risk, impact, and opportunity processes and disclosures.
Measuring supply chain impact with Higg Index Tools
As a member of Cascale, our apparel and footwear brands measure supply chain emissions using the Higg Index Tools. This helps us better understand the environmental impact of our value chain and work closely with suppliers to reduce Scope 3 emissions. In 2025, we conducted comprehensive environmental assessments of over 380 suppliers using the Higg Facility Environmental Module (FEM), covering both finished goods and raw material production suppliers and representing over 95% of our total production volume. Over 87% of these assessments were independently validated by authorized third-party verification organizations.
Our brands are driving climate action
Product-related emissions represent the largest share of Arc’teryx’s total footprint and are the central focus of the brand’s Emissions Reduction Roadmap. Alongside supply chain and transportation initiatives, Arc’teryx has maintained 100% renewable electricity across all buildings it operates since 2020, matched through the purchase of Energy Attribute Certificates.
Circularity is a defining part of Arc’teryx’s climate approach. In 2025, the ReBIRD™ platform expanded to 41 Service Centres globally, with repairs increasing by 27% year over year to over 50,000 products. Arc’teryx also became the first outdoor brand to receive TESTEX CIRCULARITY certification, reflecting its commitment to durable design and circular product systems.
