GRI 302 : Energy 2016

3-3 Management Approach 302

The direct energy consumption occurs mainly in own production , where we have direct influence , and real estate energy . Other significant parts of energy consumption are upstream in our suppliers ’ factories and also downstream , for example , by washing garments . Therefore , we work to reduce our own consumption , focus on manufacturers ’ environmental work through audits , and advise customers on care instructions for garments .

301-1 Energy consumption within the organization

An overall mapping has been made for the electricity consumption in offices , warehouses and own production , which for a total of 67 units amounts to 21,189 MWh .

Priorities for decreasing total GHG emisisons are to develop high quality products that enable long product lifetime and to spread knowledge and facilitate for sustainable consumption . In addition , a significant share of emissions comes from long distance transportation , therefore we are actively working on creating effective routines and to influence the transportation providers we cooperate with .
