Although specific emissions data for the most recent year is not available, the company has established significant reduction targets through the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

For long-term goals, Embla Medical plans to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 90% by 2050 and Scope 3 emissions by 90% by the same year.
