Cemex

Cemex, a global leader in the cement, lime, and plaster industry headquartered in Mexico, has reported its carbon emissions across scopes 1, 2, and 3. For the year 2025, Cemex's total calculated emissions are approximately 42.3 billion kg CO2e. This figure is comprised of roughly 26.1 billion kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, around 1.8 billion kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and approximately 12.4 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions.

Reviewing historical data, Cemex reported approximately 52.6 billion kg CO2e in 2023 and about 57.3 billion kg CO2e in 2022. In 2021, total emissions were approximately 60.2 billion kg CO2e, and in 2020, they stood at approximately 61.5 billion kg CO2e.

Cemex has established significant climate commitments, aiming for net-zero CO2 emissions across the company by 2050. This long-term ambition is supported by near-term targets aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and its 1.5°C scenario. Specifically, Cemex has committed to a reduction of 47% in Scope 1 emissions per ton of cementitious material by 2030 compared to a 1990 baseline, and a 58.1% reduction in Scope 2 emissions per ton of cementitious material by 2030. For Scope 3 emissions, the company targets a 25.2% reduction per ton of purchased clinker and cement for purchased goods and services, and a 42% absolute reduction for the use of sold products by 2030, both from a 2020 base year. Cemex has also committed to reducing its Scope 3 emissions from fuel and energy related activities by 40% per ton of purchased fuels and from upstream transportation and distribution by 30% per ton of materials transported by 2030.
