Grohe Holding's reported carbon emissions

In 2020, Grohe Holding reported significant carbon emissions totalling approximately 2,000,000,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 1,043,000,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of around 565,000,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching approximately 1,100,000,000,000 kg CO2e. Notably, the Scope 3 emissions primarily stem from the use of sold products, which accounted for the entirety of that category. Comparatively, in 2019, Grohe's emissions were slightly higher, with total emissions of about 2,020,000,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 1,063,000,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1, 547,000,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 2, and 1,121,000,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 3. This indicates a minor reduction in total emissions year-on-year. Despite these figures, Grohe has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may not have formalised commitments to reduce them in line with industry standards or frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Overall, Grohe's emissions data highlights the scale of its carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which are critical for understanding the full impact of its operations and products on climate change.
