Making sustainability measurable: ALPLA publishes Sustainability Report 2025
Under the guiding principle “Commitments in Action”, ALPLA has published its Sustainability Report 2025. It shows how the company translates its sustainability targets into concrete measures. A key milestone is the first external assurance of selected sustainability indicators – an important step towards even greater transparency, reliability and comparability.
At ALPLA, sustainability is not a standalone programme, but an integral part of everyday business decisions. The Sustainability Report 2025 documents the developments of the past year and shows how ALPLA takes responsibility across the entire value chain – from its own sites and products to collaboration with customers, suppliers, and other partners. The title “Commitments in Action” captures this ambition: what matters is not only setting targets, but continuously implementing them and achieving measurable impact.
Sustainability indicators externally assured for the first time
For the first time, selected sustainability indicators were reviewed by an independent auditor. This increases the reliability of the published information and provides a stronger basis for transparently assessing ALPLA’s sustainability performance. At the same time, the company is preparing for the increasing regulatory requirements for sustainability reporting. The limited external assurance represents an important step towards implementing the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive.
Sustainability more firmly embedded in the core business
In 2025, ALPLA integrated sustainability considerations even more closely into strategic and operational decision-making. Key developments include the implementation of the Sustainability-Linked Financing Framework, the further development of physical climate risk assessments and continued progress towards the Scope 3 emissions target associated with the Science Based Targets initiative. The expansion of recycling capacities, the increased use of recycled materials and investments in energy and water efficiency remain central levers.
"Sustainability at ALPLA is not a standalone programme – it is part of how we do business every day. With ‘Commitments in Action’, we show how we translate our commitments into concrete measures."
Philipp Lehner, CEO of the ALPLA Group
Updated Double Materiality Assessment
With an updated Double Materiality Assessment, ALPLA has aligned its sustainability topics with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards. The company considers both its impact on the environment and society and the financial opportunities and risks associated with sustainability topics. At the same time, aspects along the value chain have been given greater consideration.
External ratings also confirm the progress made. ALPLA improved its EcoVadis score, retained gold medal status and remains among the top 5% of all companies assessed. In the CDP Climate Change rating, ALPLA achieved a score of B.
Translating commitments into concrete measures
