EOS pledges net-zero by 2045 with targets approved by SBTi
June 5, 2025
EOS GmbH, headquartered in Krailling, Germany, has announced that the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) has approved its science-based targets (SBT) designed to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2045.
“We are proud to take this important step toward a 1.5-degree future, reinforcing our commitment to meaningful climate action and to supporting our customers on their sustainability journeys,” said Marie Langer, CEO of EOS. “Our validated science-based targets reflect EOS’ dedication to Responsible Manufacturing and our role in helping drive sustainability progress within the Additive Manufacturing industry.”

EOS’s science-based targets include:
- 42% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 CO2e emissions by 2030
- 25% absolute reduction in Scope 3 CO2e emissions by 2030
- 90% absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 CO2e emissions by 2040
- 90% absolute reduction in Scope 3 CO2e emissions by 2045
EOS has also developed a climate roadmap based on cross-functional workshops and data-driven emissions analysis. The key measures include electrification of the company car fleet, transition to renewable electricity across sites, development of more sustainable materials, and increased efficiency of systems and processes.
Björn Hannappel, head of sustainability at EOS, stated, “As our purpose states, we want to accelerate the world’s transition to Responsible Manufacturing. These goals will direct us within EOS and the greater EOS Group as we continue our sustainability journey in the future.”
“We applaud EOS for setting ambitious net-zero targets,” stated Tibo Uyttersprot, head of sustainability at EOS software partner Materialise, Leuven, Belgium. “From a customer perspective, this is a vital step that supports our own climate ambitions and reinforces the importance of sustainability across the Additive Manufacturing value chain.”
SBTi’s Net-Zero Standard
The SBTi is a globally recognised corporate action organisation that enables companies and financial institutions worldwide to play their part in combating the climate crisis and align with the goals of the Paris Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5°C.
With its approved targets, EOS joins a growing number of companies responding to the call for climate action. EOS is said to be committed to doing its part by implementing emission reductions, contributing to halving global emissions before 2030 and achieving net-zero before 2050.
Greenhouse gas emissions include not only carbon dioxide (CO₂), but also other gases such as methane and nitrous oxide that contribute to global warming. Carbon dioxide equivalents (CO₂e) serve as a standardised metric, allowing for comparison of the warming impact of different greenhouse gases. EOS’ science-based targets are set against a 2022 base year.
