Overview of Beiersdorf Manufacturing Berlin (BMB)

A champion for sustainability in the skincare industry, Beiersdorf, a global company with over 21,000 employees, implements the Beyond SkinCare initiative to minimise its environmental impact through CO2 reduction and circularity practices.

Since 2019, all their facilities worldwide use renewable electricity (Scope 2 emissions). The Berlin plant has gone a step further by switching to biomethane, a renewable source for heating and process heat, which further reduces their carbon footprint (Scope 1 emissions).

Beiersdorf is committed to making all their factories carbon neutral by 2030. The Berlin manufacturing plant has been a strong proponent of this and has become its first plant to switch to biogas, from the beginning of 2022 This includes a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions (30% by 2025) across all stages of production (direct and indirect emissions).
