Despite these figures, Friwo has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, nor have they disclosed any Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) targets. The emissions data is cascaded from their parent company, Friwo AG, indicating a corporate family relationship that influences their reporting and performance metrics. Overall, while Friwo GeräTebau GmbH has made strides in reducing their emissions, the absence of formal reduction targets highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate strategy.
