EDAX Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from AMETEK, Inc.

EDAX Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of reported figures. The company is a current subsidiary of AMETEK, Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and performance metrics. As of now, EDAX Inc. has not established any documented reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it participate in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The lack of specific emissions data and reduction commitments suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Given its affiliation with AMETEK, Inc., any potential climate initiatives or emissions data may be inherited from this parent company. However, specific details regarding AMETEK's emissions performance or climate commitments have not been provided in this context. In summary, while EDAX Inc. is part of a larger corporate family that may have climate initiatives, it currently lacks specific emissions data and defined reduction targets.
