Despite the increase in emissions in 2023, Castings has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges available. The company operates within the foundry sector, which is known for its significant carbon footprint, and it is essential for such organisations to adopt robust climate strategies to mitigate their environmental impact.
