Gelest's reported carbon emissions

Gelest, headquartered in the US, currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data for recent years. As a result, specific figures regarding their Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions are not provided. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their initiatives. This absence of data suggests that Gelest may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments or reporting practices. In the context of the industry, it is increasingly important for companies to establish clear emissions reduction strategies and transparency in reporting to align with global climate goals.
