Croatian Post Climate Goals Are Aligned with the Highest Global Standards

By receiving this validation, Croatian Post has committed to reducing absolute GHG emissions from Scope 1 and Scope 2 by 42% by 2030, compared to the baseline year of 2023. Additionally, we aim to reduce Scope 3 emissions – which include emissions from purchased goods and services, capital goods, upstream transportation and distribution, and waste generated in operations – by 25% within the same timeframe.

These targets are based on the scientific scenario of limiting global temperature rise to 1.5°C, in line with the Paris Agreement and the latest scientific findings on climate change. Today, Croatian Post is one of only four companies in Croatia with validated science-based targets. This recognition further strengthens the credibility of our climate strategy and demonstrates our clear commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2040. It also reflects a high level of alignment with the latest European regulatory requirements.

The target-setting process was the result of several months of interdisciplinary collaboration across numerous organizational units. The validation of these targets was made possible through the joint effort of the entire organization, with strong support from the management and the Executive Board.

Next steps on the path to achieving these targets include a set of concrete measures that Croatian Post is already implementing as part of its Transition plan. These include electrification of the vehicle fleet, modernization of logistics and delivery processes, investments in renewable energy sources, enhancement of energy efficiency across facilities, and active collaboration with partners to reduce emissions across the entire value chain.
