The company has not specified any formal reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, suggesting a need for clearer commitments in the context of industry standards for climate action. Ahlsell's emissions data reflects its ongoing efforts to monitor and manage its carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, which are directly linked to its operations. However, the significant contribution of Scope 3 emissions highlights the importance of addressing indirect emissions in its supply chain and business travel to achieve comprehensive climate goals.
