Greenhouse Gas Emissions

SASB CODE	METRIC	DATA/ RESPONSE

RT-CP-110a.1

Gross global Scope 1 emissions,

percentage covered under emissions- limiting regulations.

Gross global Scope 1 emissions in 2023: 24,660 metric tons CO2e.

Our climate commitments are part of how we care for the environment. Aptar has set science-based targets (SBTs) for Scope 1 and

Scope 2 emissions reductions that are in line with requirements to keep global warming at 1.5° Celsius by 2030. In addition, we have

a renewable electricity target, as well as a Scope 3 target. Aptar's targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets

Initiative (SBTi). They are as follows:

• Aptar commits to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions 82% by 2030 from a 2019 base year.
• Aptar commits to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services, upstream transportation and distribution, waste generated in operations, and downstream transportation and distribution 14% by 2030 from a 2019 base year.
• Aptar also commits to increase annual sourcing of renewable electricity from 57% in 2019 to 100% by 2030.

In 2023, we achieved a significant reduction (77%) in absolute Scope 1+2 GHG emission from 2019 baseline. At year-end 2023, 97%

of our total electricity consumption was from renewable energy sources, which on track to achieve 100% by 2030.

In addition, Aptar reports on our supplier engagement annually through the CDP climate change questionnaire, which gives every

participating company a Supplier Engagement Rating (SER), and through our own EcoVadis assessment.

In early 2024, we received A rating on our SER performance and were recognized on the Supplier Engagement Leaderboard by CDP for the fourth consecutive year, for working with our suppliers on governance, targets, Scope 3 emissions and value chain

engagement.

Aptar discloses Scope 1, 2 & 3 emissions data within our annual Sustainability Report and CDP Climate Change Response.

Discussion of long-term and short-term

strategy or plan to manage Scope 1 emissions, emissions reduction targets, and an analysis of performance against those targets.

Our climate commitments are part of how we care for the environment. Aptar has set science-based targets (SBTs) for Scope 1 and

Scope 2 emissions reductions that are in line with requirements to keep global warming at 1.5° Celsius by 2030. In addition, we have a renewable electricity target, as well as a Scope 3 target. Aptar's targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). They are as follows:

• Aptar also commits to increase annual sourcing of renewable electricity from 57% in 2019 to 100% by 2030.

Aptar's climate transition plan includes actions that align with climate science and support the transition to a low-carbon economy. In

addition, Aptar developed an ISO 14064-1 Compliant Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG) management system to map and ensure

accurate carbon accounting and reporting.

Water Management

SASB CODE	METRIC	DATA/ RESPONSE

RT-CP-140a.1

1. Total water withdrawn
2. Total water consumed, percentage of each in regions with High or Extremely High Baseline Water Stress

In 2023,

1. Total water withdrawn: 4,001 megaliters
2. Total water consumption: 342 megaliters

Water is not identified as a critically material indicator by our stakeholders because it is not a key raw material component in our processes. Most of our manufacturing facilities have closed loop water systems and, overall, Aptar sites consume less than three percent of our total water withdrawal. What we return to the ecosystem is often at a better quality than what was drawn, due to these internal closed loop and water treatment processes.

We collect withdrawal and discharge water metrics from all sites monthly and report this information annually within the CDP Water

questionnaire. During our most recent water-risk assessment, all of Aptar's manufacturing locations were mapped relative to regions of water risk via the World Wildlife Fund's Water Risk Filter, with particular attention on the physical-risk category, which poses the

most immediate and potentially disruptive threats to business continuity. Through this assessment, four sites were identified as medium high or very-high physical risk. As reported via the CDP Water Questionnaire, these water-scarce sites are developing contingency plans if local water supplies fall below the level needed to maintain operations.

Additionally, Aptar's site leaders are trained annual on water management and water circularity. This training provides examples of

actions site leaders can take to reduce water consumption, reduce water risks, measure, monitor, and report on their water use.

		At year-end 2023, Aptar achieved an 86% disposal avoidance of operational wastes, surpassing our 2023 target of 84%. We are
		working with global partners to expand the Landfill Free program to North and Southeast Asia where recycling opportunities and

Aptar maintains a Regulatory Policy, which states our commitment to improve the quality, safety and environmental impact of our products. This policy is available on the Aptar website. Over the past few years, Aptar has taken a range of significant actions to eliminate chemicals of concern within our own product lines. Materials identified for phase out of Aptar products include: formaldehyde (POM), styrene (ABS, SAN), vinyl chloride (PVC) and bisphenol A (PC, epoxy). Aptar has developed an internal system with targets and KPIs to track progress towards the elimination of these chemicals of concern. All Aptar products are assessed for health and safety impacts and improvement. For recent information, please visit the relevant links below.
