Ahlsell Oy's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Ahlsell AB

Ahlsell Oy, headquartered in Finland (FI), currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of figures in the latest emissions data. The company is a current subsidiary of Ahlsell AB, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges from Ahlsell Oy, it is important to note that any climate initiatives or targets may be inherited from its parent company, Ahlsell AB. This relationship suggests that Ahlsell Oy may align its sustainability efforts with the broader goals set by Ahlsell AB, although specific details on these initiatives are not provided. As a subsidiary, Ahlsell Oy's climate strategy may be informed by the practices and commitments of Ahlsell AB, which could include industry-standard climate initiatives such as Science-Based Targets (SBTi) or participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). However, without explicit data or commitments from Ahlsell Oy itself, the specifics of its carbon emissions and climate commitments remain unclear.
