TFG Limited's reported carbon emissions

In 2025, TFG Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 818,547,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 4,149,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 229,882,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, and a significant 584,516,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 emissions breakdown reveals major contributions from purchased goods and services (405,728,000 kg CO2e) and capital goods (34,052,000 kg CO2e). In 2024, TFG's total emissions were about 514,035,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 9,901,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 206,338,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions for that year totalled 297,796,000 kg CO2e, again highlighting the substantial impact of purchased goods and services (173,964,000 kg CO2e). For 2023, TFG reported total emissions of approximately 434,740,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 4,421,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 233,483,000 kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions were recorded at 196,836,000 kg CO2e. Despite the significant emissions figures, TFG Limited has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The company does not appear to have cascaded any emissions data from a parent organization, and their climate strategy remains unspecified. Overall, TFG Limited's emissions profile indicates a heavy reliance on Scope 3 emissions, particularly from purchased goods and services, which presents an opportunity for targeted reduction strategies in the future.
