Breedon's reported carbon emissions

Breedon, a construction work company based in GB, reported a total of approximately 1.49 billion kg CO2e in emissions for 2025. This figure encompasses Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.

In 2024, Breedon's total emissions were approximately 1.55 billion kg CO2e. This included Scope 1 emissions of around 924 million kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions totalling approximately 789 million kg CO2e. Scope 2 emissions for 2024, using the market-based method, were approximately 2.5 million kg CO2e, and location-based were approximately 74 million kg CO2e.

For 2023, the company's total emissions were approximately 1.62 billion kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were around 981 million kg CO2e, while Scope 3 emissions were approximately 693 million kg CO2e. Scope 2 emissions (market-based) were approximately 1.4 million kg CO2e, and location-based were approximately 78 million kg CO2e.

Breedon has made significant climate commitments, including a long-term goal to achieve net-zero carbon emissions across its entire value chain by 2050. This commitment is underpinned by a target to reduce its absolute gross Scope 1, 2, and 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 95% by 2050, using 2022 as the base year.

As part of its near-term strategy, Breedon aims for a 23.3% reduction in absolute gross Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions, and Scope 3 emissions from purchased cement and clinker, by 2030, also from a 2022 baseline. Further specific targets for 2030 include an 18.6% reduction in gross Scope 1 GHG emissions per tonne of cementitious product, a 55.3% reduction in gross Scope 2 GHG emissions per tonne of cementitious product, a 42% reduction in all other absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions, and a 21.0% reduction in gross Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services per tonne of purchased clinker and cement. These targets are aligned with a 1.5°C warming scenario.
