Lead Climate Action with SBTi-Backed Targets
At Sustainzone, we help organisations turn climate commitments into practical, measurable action. Our SBTi services are designed to support businesses in aligning emissions reduction goals with the Science Based Targets initiative, helping them build trust with stakeholders, improve resilience, and accelerate progress toward net zero.
Whether you are just beginning your climate journey or strengthening an existing strategy, we provide the technical and strategic support needed to move forward with confidence.
What is SBTi?
The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is a globally recognised framework that helps companies set greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets in line with climate science. These targets are aligned with the Paris Agreement and support the global effort to limit warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.
By setting science-based targets, businesses can build a more credible climate strategy, demonstrate accountability, and create a clear pathway for long-term emissions reduction across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3.
Why SBTi Matters
- Align business operations and emissions targets with the latest climate science.
- Create a measurable and credible roadmap for emissions reduction.
- Strengthen transparency, accountability, and stakeholder confidence.
- Support ESG commitments, investor expectations, and future regulatory readiness.

FAQs about SBTi and Sustainzone Services
What is the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi)?
The Science Based Targets initiative is a global framework that helps companies set emissions reduction targets aligned with climate science and the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C pathway.
Why should our company set science-based targets?
Science-based targets help strengthen credibility, meet stakeholder expectations, improve resilience, and create a clear roadmap for emissions reduction.
What emissions are covered under SBTi?
SBTi includes Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions across direct operations, purchased energy, and the wider value chain.
How does Sustainzone support SBTi alignment?
We provide baseline assessment, target development, validation support, implementation planning, and performance monitoring.
How long does the SBTi process usually take?
The timeline depends on organisational readiness, data quality, and scope, but typically spans from several weeks to a few months.
Can SMEs also set science-based targets?
Yes. Smaller businesses can participate through simplified approaches, and we help them navigate that process efficiently.
How do science-based targets differ from net zero goals?
Science-based targets define near- and long-term emissions reductions aligned with climate science, while net zero goals describe the broader end-state of reducing and balancing emissions over time.
How do we get started with Sustainzone?
Start with a consultation. We assess your current position, identify priorities, and build a practical roadmap for setting and delivering science-based targets.
