Anchor Glass Container

In 2024, Anchor Glass Container Corporation reported total emissions of approximately 643.5 million kg CO2e, comprising 492.1 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 151.4 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This reflects a slight increase from 2023, where total emissions were approximately 564.5 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 417.1 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 147.4 million kg CO2e.

The company has committed to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, as part of its long-term climate strategy. This commitment is aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), which underscores its dedication to reducing emissions across all scopes. However, specific near-term reduction targets have not been detailed, and there are indications of some challenges in maintaining these commitments.

Anchor Glass has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, which includes emissions from purchased goods and services, business travel, and employee commuting. This lack of data may limit the comprehensiveness of their climate impact assessment.

Overall, Anchor Glass is actively working towards its climate commitments while facing the complexities of emissions reporting and reduction across its operations.
