Electrolux Group announces industry-leading target in its latest sustainability reporting

This new target replaces the Group's previous recycled plastic target and expands its focus to include its two most highly used materials by weight. Adding steel to the target increases the material in scope to more than 40% of all material purchased by the Group - around three times what was in the scope of the previous target. Additionally, the weight of recycled steel and plastics generated by the 35% target is more than double the weight covered by the previous recycled plastics target.
