Akron Brass Company's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from IDEX Corporation

Akron Brass Company, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of IDEX Corporation, which may influence its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As of now, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges from Akron Brass Company itself.
