Philmo International Expands Carbon Neutral Factories to Achieve 2025 Neutrality Goal
Philip Morris International has added eight carbon-neutral production centers to their network, moving towards their 100% carbon-neutral target by 2025.

In the past year, Femore International has increased the number of its carbon-neutral production centers in its network by eight, from five in 2021 to 13 in 2022. This indicates that the company is moving towards its goal of achieving 100% carbon neutrality in its factories by 2025. Progress has been made globally.


Argentina, Brazil, Czech Republic, Greece, Indonesia (3 production centers totaling 6 reporting entities), Lithuania, Mexico, Pakistan, Portugal, Senegal, and Switzerland.


We are proud to share the news of the progress we have made as an organization through our partnerships with factories around the world. This is an encouraging development that enables us to achieve our goal of carbon neutrality in PMI's direct operation by 2025," said Mimi Kurniawan, Vice President of Philip Morris International.


One of the ambitious targets set out in PMI's Low Carbon Transformation Plan (LCTP) is to achieve carbon neutrality in all of our factories by 2025. The plan demonstrates how the company is striving to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, particularly carbon emissions. PMI has taken a three-step approach to achieve its emission targets.


The goal is to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by minimizing consumption and optimizing efficiency. This can be achieved by reducing the use of fossil fuels and promoting the transition to renewable energy sources. Furthermore, compensating for unavoidable emissions through priority project settings based on nature-based solutions and purchasing high-quality carbon credits is encouraged. This is the aim of the Phemo International Low Carbon Transition Plan.


PMI's carbon neutrality goal covers the entire value chain of the company, including:


PMI is moving closer to its goal of transitioning to a carbon-neutral economic model with every new announcement of its carbon-neutral factories. This involves the direct operation of the upstream supply chain for tobacco and other materials, as well as the downstream usage and disposal of PMI products through production, packaging, and commercialization.
