GELITA, headquartered in Brazil, has reported its carbon emissions data for the years 2014 to 2016, focusing on production-related emissions. In 2014, the company emitted approximately 748,330 kg CO2e per tonne produced. This figure decreased to about 724,290 kg CO2e per tonne in 2015, and further reduced to approximately 709,670 kg CO2e per tonne in 2016. These figures indicate a positive trend in reducing emissions intensity over these years. However, GELITA has not specified any formal reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that while the company is making strides in decreasing emissions intensity, it may not have established comprehensive climate commitments or targets at this time. Overall, GELITA's focus on reducing emissions per tonne produced reflects an ongoing commitment to sustainability, although further transparency regarding specific climate goals would enhance their environmental accountability.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
GELITA is not committed to any reduction initiatives we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
