Let us know if this data was useful to you
General Cable Corporation, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a merged entity, and its climate commitments and emissions data are cascaded from its parent organisation, Prysmian S.p.A. As of now, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges directly attributed to General Cable Corporation. However, it is important to note that the climate initiatives and performance metrics may be influenced by the overarching strategies of Prysmian S.p.A., which is responsible for setting the framework for emissions reduction and sustainability efforts. Given the lack of specific emissions data and reduction targets, General Cable Corporation's climate commitments remain undefined at this time. The company may benefit from aligning with industry standards and best practices as outlined by its parent organisation to enhance its sustainability profile in the future.
