The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). BioLite's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, and all reported figures are derived directly from BioLite Inc. As the company continues to assess its carbon footprint, it remains crucial for BioLite to establish clear climate commitments and reduction strategies to mitigate its environmental impact effectively.
