Derma Sciences, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation

Derma Sciences, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. As of now, Derma Sciences has not established any documented reduction targets or initiatives related to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Furthermore, there are no climate pledges or specific reduction initiatives outlined in their current framework. Given the lack of direct emissions data, it is essential to consider the broader context of the industry. Companies in the medical technology sector, like Derma Sciences, are increasingly recognising the importance of sustainability and are often influenced by the climate strategies of their parent organisations. In this case, emissions data and climate commitments may be cascaded from Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation, which is responsible for reporting and managing emissions at a higher corporate level. In summary, while Derma Sciences, Inc. does not currently provide specific emissions data or reduction targets, its climate commitments may be shaped by its relationship with Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation.
