In 2021, Akcoat reported total carbon emissions of approximately 206,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 52,126,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 8,387,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 142,675,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This data indicates a significant reliance on indirect emissions, particularly from Scope 3, which encompasses the entire value chain. Comparatively, in 2020, Akcoat's emissions were about 63,413,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 6,794,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, highlighting a shift in their emissions profile over the years. The 2019 figures show even higher emissions, with Scope 1 at approximately 2,169,145,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 146,366,000 kg CO2e, indicating a trend of fluctuating emissions. Despite these figures, Akcoat has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many companies are still developing comprehensive climate strategies. Overall, Akcoat's emissions data underscores the importance of addressing both direct and indirect emissions in their climate strategy, particularly as they navigate the challenges of sustainability in the coatings industry.
