SAINT-GOBAIN commences very low carbon
SIDING PRODUCTION IN THE UNITED STATES

Saint-Gobain annouces that it has commenced very low carbon production (scope
1 and 2 emissions down 96%) of siding at its US manufacturing sites in McPherson (Kansas), Social Circle (Georgia), and Williamsport (Maryland). This has been made possible thanks to the electrification of its manufacturing processes at these three sites, backed by 100% renewably-sourced electricity.

Saint-Gobain plans to convert all its US siding manufacturing sites to net zero emission production facilities (scope 1 and 2) within the next few years.

This complements the company's three existing Power Purchase Agreements that will provide enough renewable electricity to cover over 70% of electricity demand at all of Saint-Gobain's industrial sites in North America by 2025.

It is yet another tangible demonstration of Saint-Gobain's commitment to reduce its CO2 emissions, with the aim to achieve net zero emissions (scopes 1, 2 and 3) by 2050. This is in line with the world-firsts achieved by the Group in recent years, notably net zero production (scope 1 and 2) of glass in France and plasterboard in Norway, and very low carbon production (scope 1 and 2) of glass wool in Finland. It further strengthens the Group's position as the worldwide leader in light and sustainable construction and its leading role in helping to build a carbon-neutral economy.
