Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi)
Measurable climate protection based on scientific standards
The Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) supports companies in setting science-based targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
By participating, we are committing to reducing our Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 42% by 2030 compared to the base year 2020, and to measuring and reducing our Scope 3 emissions. Our aim is to actively contribute to limiting global warming to 1.5 °C and to effectively combat climate change.
An important milestone:
We have been successfully accepted into the SBTi. This makes Estyria Naturprodukte GmbH – following Red Bull and AGRANA – one of the first three food companies in Austria to commit to the 1.5 °C target and define concrete short-term climate targets (“near-term targets”).

Traditional Styrian
stamp press process
While modernity has brought progress in many areas, the traditional Styrian stamp press process is still the best way of making pumpkin seed oil. The main difference between this and other pressing methods is that we work with open roasting pans. At our plant, people check when the pumpkin seeds are perfectly roasted and so will yield the very best oil. This enables our experienced oil millers to produce the pumpkin seed oil that has won more prizes than any other – and which as a result of this type of pressing retains all the natural constituents. The untreated oil is not filtered; the particles that make it cloudy settle naturally when the oil is left to rest.
