DORMAKABA POWERS ITS MANUFACTURING FACILITY IN INDIA WITH SOLAR

A key element of dormakaba's climate transition strategy is to expand the scope of solar panel installations, particularly in regions where green electricity is not readily available on the market. As part of this approach, dormakaba started by installing solar panels on the roof of its manufacturing facility in Chennai in the financial year 2018/19. In the last financial year, 2021/22, the installation was further expanded and then completed in January 2023.

dormakaba has committed to an industry-leading framework for sustainability with over 30 ambitious ESG targets as part of its Shape4Growth strategy. In the financial year 2021/22 dormakaba achieved a 2.4% year-on-year reduction in Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions. As of 30 June 2022, 67% of the company’s own plants, local assembly centers and regional logistic centers have established energy management systems (previous year: 21%).

With this further expansion of solar power generation, dormakaba is demonstrating leadership in the transition to a low-carbon economy within the access solutions industry and beyond.
