Committed to 50% Carbon Emissions by 2030
For the plastic injection molding industry, where energy intensity and material use are central, reducing carbon emissions is both a responsibility and an opportunity.
As a leading plastic injection molder, we’ve set ambitious targets to ensure our operations and customer partnerships make a real contribution toward reaching our sustainability goals.
Rosti Group is committed to reducing emissions by 50% by 2030, fully aligning with the Paris Agreement goals to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. Meeting this target requires action across every part of our global business—from the energy that powers our facilities, to the materials we use, to the design of the products we manufacture.
Transition to Clean Energy
Energy is the single biggest lever Rosti can pull to cut emissions independently from customer collaboration. By transforming the way we power our production facilities, we are making bold moves to eliminate reliance on fossil fuels.
Clean energy falls into two categories: renewable sources such as wind, solar, and hydro, which generate zero emissions, and nuclear energy, which produces minimal emissions. In 2024, we already sourced 56% of our total energy from clean alternatives, with 37% renewable and 19% nuclear.
By 2025, we expect our clean energy usage to exceed 80%—nearly all from renewable sources. Our strategic plan will scale this transition across all facilities, and by 2030, we’re committed to operating on 100% clean energy.
At the same time, we’re cutting emissions by improving efficiency. In 2024, we reduced our overall energy needs by 5% by producing more with less. Our long-term pledge is a 25% improvement in energy efficiency by 2030.
Innovation in Product Design
While clean energy is a powerful lever, over 70% of Rosti’s emissions are Scope 3, connected to the designs and materials used in our customers’ products. That’s why we work with customers to bring sustainable solutions from concept to reality through our Innovation and Sustainability Labs.
By helping customers lightweight parts and components, we reduce both material use and energy demand in manufacturing—without compromising performance.
We don’t just provide you with advice—we deliver proven assurance that solutions meet required quality and industry standards.
Product Simplification and Consolidation
Another way we reduce emissions is by cutting the number of molded and assembled components in products. By investing in and leveraging our multi-k capabilities, we can combine processes, lower energy use, and reduce material consumption.
Transitioning to Green Material
Material innovation is essential for lowering carbon impact. In 2024, 11% of the material used by Rosti was green—sourced from renewable or recycled resins.
We continue to invest in developing long-term solutions to align with circular economy goals, transitioning to recyclable and low-carbon materials wherever possible. Alongside this, we’re advancing raw material recovery and reuse initiatives, further reducing dependence on virgin resources.
Sustainable Packaging and Supply Chain
Packaging and logistics are major contributors to supply chain emissions, so we are re-evaluating how we support customers in these areas.
We are phasing out single-use cardboard packaging in favor of durable, returnable plastic packaging—a solution that reduces waste and extends product life cycles.
We’re also helping optimize transport with foldable packaging options that reduce empty trips, lower fuel use, and cut CO₂ emissions across the supply chain.
From our clean energy transition and gains in energy efficiency to sustainable product design, material innovation, and supply chain optimization, we’re integrating emissions reduction at every stage of our operations.
By partnering with Rosti, our customers get more than a contract manufacturer. They gain a partner dedicated to helping them achieve their own sustainability and carbon reduction objectives, delivering solutions built for performance, produced responsibly, and aligned with a low-carbon future.
