This has resulted in a global network consisting of around 20,600 experts who contribute their expertise every day. They make us a prime mover within our industry sector and help to keep the world moving.

Science-based climate targets

As part of Festo's global sustainability strategy, consistently avoiding or reducing greenhouse gas emissions (GHG emissions) is a top priority. We have set ourselves ambitious, science-based climate targets to limit global warming to 1.5 °C compared to pre-industrial levels. These targets were officially validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) in February 2025. The SBTi is an independent initiative that examines reduction targets based on climate science findings.

As an overarching "net zero" target, we are committed to absorbing as much greenhouse gas along the value chain (Scopes 1-3) by 2050 as we release.
