Reporting Period

Reporting Year: 2025

Baseline Year: 2025

This represents Sofemme Ltd's first formal Carbon Reduction Plan and establishes the baseline against which future emissions reductions will be measured.


Carbon Reduction Methodology

This Carbon Reduction Plan has been prepared in accordance with Public Procurement Notice (PPN) 06/21 and follows the principles of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard.

Sofemme Ltd is committed to continually improving the quality, accuracy and scope of its greenhouse gas reporting as the business develops. Future Carbon Reduction Plans will reflect improvements in emissions data collection and reporting methodologies.


Operational Boundary

This Carbon Reduction Plan applies to Sofemme Ltd's UK operations and includes emissions arising from activities under the company's operational control.

Relevant emission sources include:

  • Business travel
  • Purchased electricity
  • Courier deliveries
  • International transportation of products
  • Packaging materials
  • Waste management
  • Digital operations
  • Home and office working where applicable

Baseline Emissions Footprint

Baseline emissions provide the reference point against which future carbon reductions are measured.

As this is Sofemme Ltd's first formal Carbon Reduction Plan, the 2025 reporting year establishes the company's baseline emissions. The emissions figures below have been estimated using available operational data together with recognised greenhouse gas reporting methodologies. Sofemme Ltd will continue improving the accuracy and scope of emissions reporting as additional operational data becomes available.

Baseline Year Emissions

Emissions Total (tCOâ‚‚e)
Scope 1 0.00
Scope 2 0.15
Scope 3 (Included Sources) 6.77
Total Emissions 6.92

Current Emissions Reporting

Reporting Year: 2025

Emissions Total (tCOâ‚‚e)
Scope 1 0.00
Scope 2 0.15
Scope 3 (Included Sources) 6.77
Total Emissions 6.92

Explanation of Scope 1 Emissions

Sofemme Ltd has reported Scope 1 emissions as 0.00 tCOâ‚‚e because, during the 2025 reporting period, the company did not own or control any direct emission sources.

The company did not own or control any company vehicles, gas boilers, generators or other fuel-consuming equipment during the reporting period. Manufacturing activities are undertaken by third-party suppliers and therefore do not fall within Sofemme Ltd's Scope 1 reporting boundary.


Carbon Reduction Measures Already Implemented

Sofemme Ltd has already implemented a number of initiatives to reduce its environmental impact, including:

  • Digital consultations to reduce unnecessary travel.
  • Electronic customer records to minimise paper usage.
  • Consolidation of supplier shipments where practical.
  • Reduction of unnecessary packaging materials.
  • Responsible sourcing through supplier due diligence.
  • Working with suppliers who demonstrate ethical and responsible business practices.
  • Providing comprehensive aftercare guidance to extend the lifespan of wigs and reduce unnecessary replacement.
  • Recycling cardboard and packaging materials where possible.
  • Minimising unnecessary business travel through remote meetings.

Future Carbon Reduction Objectives

Over the next five years Sofemme Ltd aims to:

  • Improve the accuracy and completeness of greenhouse gas reporting.
  • Measure annual emissions against the 2025 baseline.
  • Review transportation emissions across the supply chain.
  • Reduce packaging waste through more sustainable materials.
  • Increase the use of digital documentation.
  • Continue evaluating suppliers on environmental performance.
  • Reduce unnecessary courier deliveries through improved logistics planning.
  • Review opportunities to work with suppliers committed to environmental improvements.
  • Review and update this Carbon Reduction Plan annually.

Carbon Reduction Targets

Sofemme Ltd is committed to achieving Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.

The 2025 reporting year establishes Sofemme Ltd's baseline emissions of 6.92 tCOâ‚‚e.

To support our Net Zero commitment, Sofemme Ltd has adopted the following interim emissions reduction target:

Interim Target: Reduce total greenhouse gas emissions by at least 20% by 2030, compared with the 2025 baseline.

This represents a reduction in total reported emissions from 6.92 tCOâ‚‚e to approximately 5.54 tCOâ‚‚e by 2030.

Progress against this target will be reviewed annually through updates to this Carbon Reduction Plan.

Sofemme Ltd intends to achieve this target by:

  • Reducing unnecessary business travel through remote consultations and meetings where appropriate.
  • Consolidating supplier shipments to reduce transport emissions.
  • Reducing packaging materials and increasing the use of recyclable packaging where practicable.
  • Increasing the use of digital documentation.
  • Reviewing supplier environmental performance as part of supplier management.
  • Identifying further opportunities to reduce operational emissions as the business grows.

Governance

Responsibility for environmental performance sits with the Director of Sofemme Ltd.

Progress against this Carbon Reduction Plan will be reviewed annually.

Environmental objectives will be incorporated into wider business planning to support continual improvement and progress towards Net Zero.
