Reducing our carbon footprint
Electricity from renewable energy sources
At STOK Emballage, we want to be part of the solution to creating a more sustainable world. That's why we continuously work to minimise our environmental impact and reduce our overall carbon footprint. Therefore, our administration, production and warehouses at all three STOK locations in Langeskov, Middelfart and Sorø use power from renewable energy sources. Energy sources that include hydropower, wind turbines, solar cells and biomass.
See the certificates for all three Danish STOK Emballage locations on our certificates page.
Climate neutral company (scope 1 and 2)
Our Danish locations use only power from renewable energy sources and as part of our environmental focus, we have chosen to offset our CO2 emissions on scope 1 and 2 (cf. Greenhouse Gas Protocol), through a partnership with ClimatePartner. Together with ClimatePartner we have calculated our CCF - Corporate Carbon Footprint. This includes emissions from sources such as energy consumption and heating, business travel, office supplies and other materials we use in the operation of our business. Our CCF calculation shows us where we need to reduce our carbon emissions. We update the calculation every year to monitor our progress and identify further areas for improvement.
CO2 compensation through double project
The offsetting of CO2 emissions is done through our support to the dual project Clean oceans and the wind farm Vader Piet via ClimatePartner's project portfolio. The Clean oceans project, which works to stop plastic waste from reaching the world's oceans, supports local plastic waste collection in Haiti, Indonesia, Brazil and the Philippines. Collected plastic waste is dropped off at local collection points, where collectors receive money, food, drinking water or school fees for the plastic waste collected. The project aims to reduce the amount of plastic waste discharged into the oceans and to recycle it as a raw material for new products. You can read more about the Clean Oceans project on the ClimatePartners website. The second part of the double project is the Vader Piet wind farm in Aruba. The wind farm consists of 10 turbines with a total capacity of 30 MW. Vader Piet is built on the east coast of the island and helps to ensure an independent energy supply for the island. The wind turbines contribute 126.1 GW annually, equivalent to approximately 15% of Aruba's total energy production. Read more about the wind project.
