Cathay Industries's reported carbon emissions
Cathay Industries, headquartered in South Africa (ZA), currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data for the most recent year. As a result, specific figures regarding their Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions are not provided. In the absence of detailed emissions data, it is important to note that the company has not outlined any specific reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of information suggests that Cathay Industries may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy and emissions reduction initiatives. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Cathay Industries will need to establish clear climate commitments and measurable targets to align with global efforts to mitigate climate change.
