Crown Paints's reported carbon emissions

Crown Paints, headquartered in Great Britain, has reported its carbon emissions data for the years 2017 to 2019. In 2019, the company recorded total emissions of approximately 3,220 kg CO2e from Scope 3, alongside 20 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 80 kg CO2e from Scope 2. This indicates a notable reliance on Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for the majority of their carbon footprint. In 2018, Crown Paints' emissions were approximately 4,050 kg CO2e from Scope 3, with Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions remaining consistent at 20 kg CO2e and 90 kg CO2e, respectively. The trend shows a decrease in Scope 3 emissions from 2018 to 2019, suggesting some progress in reducing their overall carbon impact. Despite these figures, Crown Paints has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon emissions. The absence of documented reduction strategies indicates a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, Crown Paints may benefit from establishing clear goals to enhance their environmental performance and align with global climate action efforts.
