Avery Dennison's reported carbon emissions
Avery Dennison is committed to reducing its carbon footprint and has set ambitious climate targets. In 2024, the company reported Scope 1 and 2 emissions totalling approximately 345 million kg CO2e, comprising 238 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 107 million kg CO2e from Scope 2. This marks a decrease from the previous year, with 2023 emissions at about 336 million kg CO2e (230 million kg CO2e Scope 1 and 106 million kg CO2e Scope 2). The company aims to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. To support this long-term goal, Avery Dennison has established near-term targets, including a commitment to reduce its absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 70% from a 2015 baseline by 2030. Additionally, they aim to reduce Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services and the end-of-life treatment of sold products by 30% by 2030, using a 2018 baseline. The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) has validated these commitments, confirming that Avery Dennison's near-term targets are aligned with limiting warming to 1.5°C. The company is also working towards an annual reduction of at least 3% in absolute emissions. While detailed Scope 3 emissions data is not provided for recent years, the company acknowledges the need to address these indirect emissions as part of its climate strategy.
