Asia Polymer Corporation

In 2023, Asia Polymer Corporation, headquartered in Taiwan (TW), reported total carbon emissions of approximately 108,736,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 9,920,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 98,816,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and 223,065,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The company has shown a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint over the years. For instance, in 2022, total emissions were about 109,283,000 kg CO2e, indicating a slight decrease in 2023. The emissions from Scope 1 and Scope 2 have also seen reductions from previous years, with Scope 1 emissions decreasing from 10,444,000 kg CO2e in 2022 to 9,920,000 kg CO2e in 2023, and Scope 2 emissions remaining relatively stable. Despite these reductions, Asia Polymer Corporation has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, such as those outlined by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may not have formalised its climate commitments in line with industry standards. Overall, Asia Polymer Corporation's emissions data reflects a significant scale of operations, with a notable emphasis on Scope 2 emissions, which typically arise from purchased electricity. The company’s ongoing efforts to monitor and potentially reduce its carbon emissions will be crucial in addressing climate change impacts in the polymer industry.
