CeramTec GmbH's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, CeramTec GmbH reported total carbon emissions of approximately 73,721,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 38,092,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 35,629,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Currently, there are no specified reduction targets or initiatives disclosed by CeramTec, indicating a potential area for future commitment in climate action. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data suggests that the company may not yet be addressing emissions from its value chain, which is a critical aspect of comprehensive climate strategies in the industry. As a company headquartered in Germany, CeramTec is positioned within a sector increasingly focused on sustainability and carbon footprint reduction. The reported emissions data highlights the need for ongoing evaluation and potential enhancement of their climate commitments.
