Notably, the company also disclosed significant Scope 3 emissions, specifically from purchased goods and services, amounting to approximately 536,225,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Dainichiseika has not established specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of formal commitments highlights a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. The company’s emissions intensity metrics indicate a focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions relative to revenue, with values of 3.9e-07 kg CO2e per million yen of sales in 2023 and 3.3e-07 kg CO2e in 2024. Overall, while Dainichiseika has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of defined reduction targets suggests an opportunity for enhanced climate action and commitment to sustainability.
