## Sustainability story

Blueland is on a mission to eliminate single-use plastic packaging from our everyday products, starting with our homes. From the very beginning, sustainability has been core to our mission. Our products are designed as a reusable, refillable system that has already helped divert over 1 billion single-use plastic bottles from landfills and oceans. Our tablet technology allows us to ship smaller and lighter products compared to traditional, liquid based cleaners. This means we can cut down on emissions when getting our products to our customers. We're always working to cut down on our emissions, but for everything we're still working on, we're proud to work with Climate Neutral to offset our emissions.

## Emissions (2025)

**Methodology:** Blueland's emissions inventory uses a mix of spending and activity-based data. Blueland attests to the accuracy of their data inputs and the Change Climate team reviews the submission for compliance with the Standard.

- Scope 1: 0 tCO2e
- Scope 2 (location-based): 6 tCO2e
- Scope 2 (market-based): 6 tCO2e
- Scope 3 (location-based): 10,096 tCO2e
- Scope 3 (market-based): 10,046 tCO2e
- **Total (location-based): 10,102 tCO2e**
- **Total (market-based): 10,051 tCO2e**

**Emissions intensity:** Custom — units sold

## Reduction plans

### Science-aligned targets
- Blueland commits to reduce Scope 1+2 emissions 42.00% by 2030 from a 2025 base year. (completion: 0%)

### Reduction action plans
- **Scope 3** — We plan to reduce the carbon footprint associated with the raw materials for each of our plastic spray bottles. (source: Raw materials, target: Q4 2022, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 3** — We plan to reduce the kWh of grid energy associated per unit with our formulated product manufacturing (e.g., cleaning tablets themselves!) (source: Supply chain energy use, target: Q4 2022, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 3** — We plan to reduce the carbon footprint associated with the purchase of capital goods for our headquarters. (source: Capital expenditures, target: Q1 2022, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 3** — We plan to reduce emissions through greater bulk purchasing across our supply chain. (source: Operational waste, target: Q4 2022, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 3** — We will reduce emissions by increasing the amount of recycled paper content in all of our paper-based components. (source: Raw materials, target: Q4 2022, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 3** — We plan to cut down our emissions by reducing reliance on our tins and switching to a more sustainable packaging option i.e. paper pouches (source: Packaging, target: Q4 2024, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 3** — We will look at our current product portfolio and look at opportunities to reformulate (at least 1 of our top selling products) and reduce carbon emissions. (source: Raw materials, target: Q4 2024, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 3** — We plan on furthering our efforts to reduce reliance on tins, thereby reducing our carbon footprint. To achieve this goal, we are expanding the switch to paper packaging i.e. stand up pouches in our DTC channel for at least one of our top selling products. (source: Packaging, target: Q1 2026, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 3** — We plan on reducing our reliance on air shipment services for transporting our packaging by implementing effective project management practices and fostering stronger collaboration with our major packaging supplier. (source: Upstream shipping, target: Q1 2026, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 3** — Following our shift to stand-up pouches, we plan to optimize our tin portfolio by harmonizing the remaining SKUs. This will enhance operational efficiency, consolidate tin material use, thus lowering our carbon emissions. (source: Raw Materials, target: 2027, completion: 0%)
- **Scope 3** — We plan to redesign our current hand soap starter kit packaging which will enable for a more compact design that will require fewer paper resources, reduce waste, and lower our overall environmental footprint. (source: Packaging, target: 2025, completion: 0%)
- **Scope 3** — We plan to reduce material use and emissions in direct-to-consumer fulfillment by eliminating two packaging divider SKUs, decreasing paper use, lowering packaging weight, and reducing emissions from both production and transportation. (source: Packaging, target: 2027, completion: 0%)
- **Scope 3** — We plan to reduce emissions associated with all of our tin skus by switching to a tin supplier that uses recycled content. This will lower emissions from raw material extraction and production while maintaining packaging performance and durability. (source: Raw materials, target: 2028, completion: 0%)
