Carmeuse's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Carmeuse reported total carbon emissions of approximately 11,500,000,000 kg CO2e, a decrease from about 13,500,000,000 kg CO2e in 2022. This data reflects the company's global emissions and is inherited from its parent company, Carmeuse S.A., as part of a corporate family relationship. Currently, Carmeuse has not disclosed specific targets for emissions reduction, nor does it report on Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. The absence of detailed reduction initiatives or commitments suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. As a subsidiary of Carmeuse S.A., the company is positioned within an industry that is increasingly focused on sustainability and carbon footprint reduction. However, without specific targets or initiatives outlined, it remains unclear how Carmeuse plans to align with broader climate commitments or industry standards.
