Gates Corporation's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Gates Industrial Corporation plc

Gates Corporation, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Gates Industrial Corporation plc, which may influence its climate commitments and emissions reporting. As of now, Gates Corporation has not publicly outlined any specific reduction targets or initiatives related to carbon emissions. There are no documented Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets or other climate pledges that detail their approach to mitigating climate impact. Given the absence of direct emissions data and reduction commitments, it is unclear how Gates Corporation is addressing its carbon footprint. The company may be relying on broader initiatives from its parent organization, Gates Industrial Corporation plc, which could include industry-standard practices for emissions reduction and sustainability. In summary, while Gates Corporation is part of a larger corporate family that may have climate initiatives, specific emissions data and reduction targets for the company itself are currently unavailable.
