Aciturri has approved the 2024-2025 Decarbonisation Plan, with a scope covering all its work centers and short- and long-term objectives. In addition, a Decarbonization Committee has been set up to take responsibility for managing the plan, its implementation and control.

In 2023, the Company launched the analysis of risks and opportunities related to climate change, which has been reviewed annually since then. This analysis establishes an action plan to mitigate these risks, prepared in accordance with the CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project) questionnaire, based on the concepts of the TCFD (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures). In 2025, no substantial changes were identified with respect to the results of the initial review.

And to enable the organization to monitor this impact on climate change, a carbon footprint calculation is performed, which includes direct emissions (Scope 1) and indirect emissions associated with electricity consumption (Scope 2), as well as a portion of indirect emissions (Scope 3).

In addition to greenhouse gas emissions, some of the facilities in Spain generate emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are particularly significant for activity 5 at the Puerto Real, Boecillo, Tres Cantos and Aerópolis plants, and for activity 8 in Vitoria. There are no significant VOC emissions in Brazil, France or Morocco.

To manage this in accordance with Royal Decree 117/2003, on the limitation of emissions of volatile organic compounds due to the use of solvents in certain activities, the Company replaces certain substances with others with lower volatility, to reduce them.

In 2022, the competent authorities were asked for an exemption from compliance with the limits established for diffuse emissions due to the application of the best available techniques, including solvent changes, control programs and training. This procedure is still pending resolution at some plants, with the compliance exemption having been granted at the Tres Cantos, Puerto Real, Seville AE, Getafe and Boecillo plants.

In order to comply with the limits established in relation to noise, measurements are carried out periodically at all work centers, ensuring compliance as required by the competent authority.

At the Boecillo plant, efforts have been made to reduce noise levels through improvements in extraction systems. Even so, new improvement opportunities are currently being analyzed following subsequent measurements.

At the Company’s facilities, the data provided on light pollution are not significant, as they are like the cases reported for the lighting of the surrounding areas used for circulation. No specific actions are carried out in this regard.
