In 2022, Amryt Pharma reported total carbon emissions of approximately 104,300 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 63,800 kg CO2e, primarily from stationary combustion, Scope 2 emissions of around 12,900 kg CO2e from purchased electricity, and Scope 3 emissions of about 27,600 kg CO2e, mainly attributed to business travel. The company has shown a significant reduction in emissions from previous years, with total emissions of approximately 368,480 kg CO2e in 2021 and about 441,380 kg CO2e in 2020. This indicates a downward trend in their carbon footprint, reflecting their commitment to sustainability. Amryt Pharma is a current subsidiary of Chiesi Farmaceutici S.p.A., which influences its climate initiatives and reporting. However, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges disclosed by Amryt Pharma. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that while the company is actively reducing emissions, it has not yet formalised specific targets or commitments in line with industry standards such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Overall, Amryt Pharma's emissions data and reduction efforts highlight a proactive approach to managing their environmental impact, although further commitments could enhance their sustainability profile.
