In 2023, Farrow & Ball Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 29,042,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 and 257,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1. The company has not disclosed any Scope 2 emissions data.

Farrow & Ball Limited is a current subsidiary of Hempel A/S, which may influence their climate commitments and reporting practices. However, there are no specific reduction targets or climate pledges documented for Farrow & Ball, nor are there any initiatives listed under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate frameworks. The absence of reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its carbon footprint, it may not yet have formalised strategies for emissions reduction. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, it will be essential for Farrow & Ball to develop and communicate clear climate commitments to align with global climate goals.
