Durbin PLC's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Uniphar plc

Durbin PLC, headquartered in Great Britain, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Uniphar plc, and any emissions data or climate commitments may be inherited from this parent organization. As part of its climate strategy, Durbin PLC aligns with the sustainability initiatives of Uniphar plc, which includes participation in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). However, specific reduction targets or achievements have not been disclosed for Durbin PLC itself. The absence of detailed emissions data and reduction initiatives highlights the need for further transparency in Durbin PLC's climate commitments. As the company continues to operate under the umbrella of Uniphar plc, it is expected to adhere to the broader sustainability goals set by its parent organization.
