In 2023, Bally Schuhfabriken AG reported total carbon emissions of approximately 63,370,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 410,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 3,440,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 59,490,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This represents a notable decrease from 2022, when total emissions were about 98,770,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 490,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 3,630,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 93,811,970 kg CO2e. Bally has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is actively reporting its emissions, it may not yet have formalised commitments to reduce its carbon footprint in the future. The emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, indicating that Bally Schuhfabriken AG is independently reporting its own emissions performance. The company continues to monitor and disclose its carbon emissions, reflecting a growing awareness of climate impact within the industry.
