Climate Commitments and Reduction Targets:

Grupo Rotoplas has made significant commitments to reduce its environmental impact. As a participant in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), the company has set the following targets:

• Near-term Targets (by 2030 from a 2022 base year):
  • Reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 42%.
  • Reduce absolute Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions by 25%.
• Long-term Targets:
  • Commitment to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 42% by 2030 from a 2022 base year, aligning with 1.5°C warming scenarios.
  • Commitment to Net Zero across all scopes by 2050.

Additionally, prior to the SBTi targets, Grupo Rotoplas stated aims to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by the middle of this decade. They also previously committed to reducing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 30% from a 2020 baseline by 2030.
