CONMED Corporation's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, CONMED Corporation reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,103,900 kg CO2e. This figure includes 142,140 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 9,270 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity. The majority of their emissions, about 952,490 kg CO2e, fall under Scope 3, which encompasses all other indirect emissions that occur in the value chain. Comparatively, in 2023, CONMED's Scope 3 emissions were reported at approximately 912,400 kg CO2e, indicating a slight increase in emissions year-on-year. Currently, CONMED Corporation has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company is not reported to inherit emissions data from any parent organisation, maintaining its own emissions reporting and climate commitments independently. As a medical technology company headquartered in the US, CONMED is positioned within an industry that increasingly prioritises sustainability and carbon footprint reduction, yet it has yet to publicly commit to specific climate pledges or reduction strategies.
