Our path to net-zero
Eythos integrates sustainability into its operations by meticulously tracking carbon footprints, sourcing local recycled materials, and collaborating with environmentally conscious suppliers.
Waste reduction is achieved through comprehensive recycling and repurposing initiatives. Employees receive training in Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles. Our objective is to attain net-zero emissions by 2035, thereby guiding the industry toward a more sustainable future.

Precision Carbon Tracking and Reduction
Eythos' proprietary tool meticulously tracks Scope 1, 2, and 3 carbon emissions, adhering to GHG Protocol and ISO guidelines, and provides comprehensive dashboards for identifying emission hotspots.
Our objectives include a 75% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030, a 30% reduction in Scope 3 by 2030, and achieving carbon neutrality by 2035. Our strategy involves powering our operations with renewable energy, increasing our use of sea freight, and adopting Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) for essential air travel.
Eythos is committed to reducing our direct footprint through operational improvements before considering offsets for unavoidable emissions.
Sustainable raw materials
Eythos prioritises sustainable material selection, using FSC-certified plywood, recycled foams, and 80%+ recycled FSC® or PEFC™ certified cardboards, all sourced locally.
We avoid wood fumigation and eliminate plastic packaging in favor of biodegradable or reusable alternatives. This commitment minimises emissions and waste, aligning with our dedication to environmental responsibility and circular economy principles.
2030 carbon halving pledge
Eythos is committed to cutting its carbon emissions by 50% by 2030. This commitment encompasses Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, addressing direct operations, purchased energy, and supply chain impacts.
Eythos is transitioning its facilities to renewable energy and exploring ways to shift logistics to lower-emission alternatives such as lower-impact sea freight and adopting Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) for necessary air shipments.
Locally sourced, sustainable materials such as FSC wood and recycled cardboard further contribute to emission reductions. Eythos’ in-house tool meticulously tracks progress day after day.
