Business travels

Despite growing across all geographies, Coloplast aims to reduce emissions from company air travel by 10% compared to 2018/19 levels and then freeze. We will limit the number of business trips while promoting emission-efficient choices when travelling. We are also strengthening digital meeting resources and working-from-home capacities. We have included emission information from available travel options when employees book business travel, expanded the list of rental car suppliers in Europe and promoted the use of cars and public transportation for short business trips.

As COVID-19 impacts on travelling were further reduced in 2022/23, the emissions from air travel have increased compared to previous years. However, compared to pre-pandemic levels, emissions from air travel are still significantly lower, resulting in a 41% reduction of air travel in 2022/23 compared to the base year 2018/19.
