In 2023, Bactiguard reported total carbon emissions of approximately 7,100,000 kg CO2e across all scopes. This includes 31,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 811,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and about 7,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. Notably, the Scope 3 emissions consist of various categories, with approximately 4,510,000 kg CO2e attributed to purchased goods and services, and about 1,923,000 kg CO2e from upstream transportation and distribution. Comparatively, in 2022, Bactiguard's total emissions were around 7,367,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 25,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 903,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a slight reduction in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Despite these figures, Bactiguard has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of formal climate pledges or science-based targets suggests that while the company is tracking its emissions, it may not yet have established a comprehensive strategy for significant reductions in line with industry standards.
