Holcim

Holcim's carbon footprint for 2025 is approximately 122,000,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 52,000,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 3,000,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 37,000,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. For 2024, the total emissions were approximately 110,000,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 53,000,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 3,000,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 35,000,000,000 kg CO2e. In 2023, Holcim reported total emissions of approximately 124,000,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 contributing 74,000,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 5,000,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 46,000,000,000 kg CO2e.

Holcim has set ambitious climate commitments, including a long-term goal to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by 2050. For near-term targets, Holcim aims to reduce its Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 26.2% per ton of cementitious materials by 2030, based on a 2018 baseline. Additionally, the company is committed to reducing its Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services by 25.1% per ton of purchased clinker and cement by 2030 from a 2020 base year. Further Scope 3 reduction targets include a 20% decrease per ton of purchased fuels for fuel and energy-related activities and a 24.3% reduction per ton of materials transported for upstream and downstream transport and distribution by 2030.

In alignment with its net-zero ambition, Holcim commits to a significant reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions, aiming for a 95% decrease per ton of cementitious materials by 2050 from a 2018 baseline. The company also aims to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 90% by 2050 from a 2020 base year. Holcim's climate targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) as being in line with the 1.5°C pathway.
