Arçelik’s eff orts towards building a more sustainable future, not only for our company but also for our customers, are consistently evolving. Sustainability is
deeply ingrained in every aspect of Arçelik’s value chain.” Arçelik is aiming to become a net-zero
company by 2050, taking a more ambitious step to set long-term targets according to the Science Based Target Initiative (STBi).
