Buhler Sortex Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from BüHler AG

Buhler Sortex Limited, headquartered in Great Britain, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Bühler Holding AG, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While Buhler Sortex Limited does not have documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges, it is part of a broader corporate family that includes Bühler AG. This parent company may have its own sustainability initiatives and emissions data, which could indirectly impact Buhler Sortex's climate strategy. As a subsidiary, Buhler Sortex Limited's climate commitments may align with those of Bühler Holding AG, which is known for its focus on sustainability and reducing environmental impact. However, without specific emissions data or reduction targets from Buhler Sortex Limited itself, it is challenging to provide a detailed overview of its carbon footprint or climate commitments. In summary, Buhler Sortex Limited is currently without specific emissions data or reduction initiatives, and its climate commitments may be influenced by its relationship with Bühler Holding AG.
