## Sustainability story

We believe that photography is a powerful tool for capturing the beauty of the world around us and preserving it for future generations. Designed in Norway, we use environmentally friendly materials in our products and packaging wherever possible. Our iPhone camera accessories are long-lasting and modular to make them compatible with multiple phone generations. As part of the "1% for the Planet" movement, we donate 1% of our revenues to environmental causes, and we strive to offset all carbon emissions caused during the production and delivery of our products.

## Emissions (2025)

**Methodology:** Fjorden's inventory uses spending data to estimate GHG emissions. Fjorden attests to the accuracy of their data inputs and the Change Climate Project team reviews the submission for compliance with the Standard.

- Scope 1: 8 tCO2e
- Scope 2 (location-based): 59 tCO2e
- Scope 2 (market-based): 59 tCO2e
- Scope 3 (location-based): 2,273 tCO2e
- Scope 3 (market-based): 2,273 tCO2e
- **Total (location-based): 2,340 tCO2e**
- **Total (market-based): 2,340 tCO2e**

**Emissions intensity:** Per unit of product — unit of product

## Reduction plans

### Reduction action plans
- **Scope 1** — Implement energy conservation measures to reduce consumption by installing smart sockets, smart thermostats, and energy meters in our respective home offices (we're a remote company). (source: Energy at offices or controlled facilities, target: Q3 2023, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 3** — Implement a policy for low-carbon business travel to require lower-carbon forms of transportation and incentivize virtual meetings for all employees. (source: Business travel, target: Q2 2023, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 2** — Transition all the energy consumption, currently "EU energy mix", to Norwegian hydro power through our electric utility in our headquarters. (source: Electricity, target: Q1 2023, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 3** — Implement a low carbon sourcing policy for our U.S. Warehouse requiring all packaging materials to be sourced within the U.S. (source: Packaging, target: Q4 2025, completion: 100%)
- **Scope 3** — Establish a US Warehouse to effectively reduce downstream shipping. The warehouse will be fully functional and operational by EOY 2024. (source: Downstream shipping, target: Q4 2025, completion: 0%)
- **Scope 3** — Implement a low carbon sourcing/purchasing policy to raw materials by 100% across all products (source: Raw materials, target: 2025, completion: 0%)
- **Scope 3** — Eliminate all bubble mailer across all shipments (source: Packaging, target: 2025, completion: 0%)
