Looking back to 2022, the company reported Scope 1 emissions of 6.01 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 market-based emissions of 2.76 million kg CO2e. Their Scope 3 emissions in 2022 were largely driven by purchased goods and services (586.39 million kg CO2e), business travel (19.11 million kg CO2e), and employee commute (6.24 million kg CO2e).

Biesse is committed to significantly reducing its environmental footprint. The company aims to achieve near-zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by the middle of the current decade (2023-2025). As part of this commitment, all Italian companies within the Group have purchased electricity from Guarantee of Origin (GO) certified renewable sources since 2023, intending to substantially reduce indirect Scope 2 market-based CO2 emissions. These targets and commitments are publicly disclosed in their sustainability reports. Emissions data is cascaded from Biesse S.p.A.
