Siegwerk Reaches 100 Percent Renewable Electricity

Since launching its HorizonNOW sustainability agenda in 2021, Siegwerk continues to invest in climate action and more sustainable operations.

Siegwerk announced that in 2025 it was powered by 100% renewable electricity across its global operations. 

This achievement marks another important milestone in the company’s sustainability journey and underlines its long-term commitment to decarbonization and responsible business practices as part of its HorizonNOW 2030 sustainability agenda.

Since initiating its transition to renewable electricity in 2021, Siegwerk has continuously expanded its green electricity footprint worldwide. 

In 2023, the company achieved 100% global renewable electricity coverage for the first time and has maintained this coverage ever since. Siegwerk also continues to strengthen its approach through a variety of measures. 

These include on-site solar installations, for example in India, Argentina, Mexico, and Thailand; the purchase of unbundled energy attribute certificates; the switch to green electricity tariffs; and the selection of renewable energy providers. 

All these efforts have collectively strengthened Siegwerk’s overall operational sustainability and reduced its carbon footprint across continents.

Moving forward, Siegwerk’s renewable electricity strategy will increasingly focus on expanding on-site and off-site renewable generation and strengthening regional strategies that reflect different grid conditions, regulatory frameworks, and market maturity levels around the world. 

“Operating on 100 percent renewable electricity worldwide is an important milestone for Siegwerk and a strong signal of our dedication to climate action. Having ensured this coverage for the third year in a row is a strong sign of continued commitment—not just a one-time action,” said Alina Marm, Head of Global Sustainability at Siegwerk. “At the same time, we know that credible climate progress requires continuous investment, long-term thinking, and concrete actions throughout the entire value chain. This achievement is therefore not the end of a journey, but another step forward.”

Siegwerk’s renewable electricity strategy forms an important pillar of its broader carbon-reduction roadmap and reflects Siegwerk’s belief that long-term climate progress requires both ambition and discipline. 

Siegwerk has established a dedicated “green fund” to accelerate investments in sustainability and emission-reduction projects worldwide. The additional budget is intended to support carbon-reduction investments, including projects with longer payback periods. This financial commitment reinforces the company’s determination to further accelerate the transition to renewable energy and improve energy efficiency across all its global operations.

Siegwerk will continue to review and refine its approach as technologies, markets, and regulatory environments evolve.
