Werfen's reported carbon emissions
In 2020, Werfen reported emissions data indicating a carbon footprint of approximately 3.1 kg CO2e per employee. While specific total emissions figures are not disclosed, the company has provided a metric of 0.00513 tonnes CO2e per £1 million in turnover. This data reflects their operational impact but does not specify emissions across the three scopes (Scope 1, 2, or 3). Currently, Werfen has not established any formal reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This absence of defined targets suggests that while the company is aware of its carbon emissions, it may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As a company headquartered in Spain (ES), Werfen is positioned within an industry increasingly focused on sustainability and carbon reduction. The lack of specific emissions data and reduction initiatives highlights an opportunity for Werfen to enhance its climate commitments and align with global sustainability goals.
