In 2023, Hosokawa Micron reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,976,000,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 400,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 1,900,000 kg CO2e, and a significant contribution from Scope 3 emissions, which totalled around 2,974,700,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions breakdown reveals major sources, including the use of sold products (approximately 2,921,000,000 kg CO2e) and end-of-life treatment of sold products (about 1,775,700,000 kg CO2e). For the previous year, 2022, Hosokawa Micron's emissions were consistent, with total emissions also around 2,976,000,000 kg CO2e, maintaining the same levels in Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. Despite the substantial emissions figures, Hosokawa Micron has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or SBTi commitments. The company does not appear to inherit emissions data from a parent organisation, as it operates independently in this regard. Overall, while Hosokawa Micron's emissions remain high, the lack of defined climate commitments suggests an opportunity for the company to enhance its sustainability efforts and align with industry standards for carbon reduction.
