Corporate entity: Groupwide
Deadline: 2030

Outlook

TfS and WACKER will seek out and eradicate weaknesses in the supply chains even more assiduously. We will aim to use TfS to rate the sustainability performance of all our key suppliers.

One key focus for us will be the carbon footprint in the supply chain (Scope 3). TfS will develop standards and processes for querying suppliers in a consistent manner and evaluating the resultant data.
