Draeger, headquartered in France, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as no emissions figures are available. The company is a current subsidiary of Drägerwerk AG & Co. KGaA, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. As of now, Draeger has not established any documented reduction targets or climate pledges.
