Inter IKEA Systems B.V.'s reported carbon emissions
In 2022, Inter IKEA Systems B.V. reported significant emissions from its operations, with approximately 3,154,000 kg CO2e attributed to NOx emissions from production and about 742,000 kg CO2e from PM2.5 emissions related to product transport. This data reflects a slight increase in NOx emissions from production compared to 2021, where emissions were around 3,076,000 kg CO2e, and PM2.5 emissions from transport were approximately 727,000 kg CO2e. The company has not disclosed specific Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data, nor has it set formal reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The absence of reduction targets suggests a need for further development in their climate strategy. Inter IKEA Systems B.V. operates as a current subsidiary within a corporate family structure, inheriting emissions data from its parent organisation. This cascading of data indicates that the emissions figures are part of a broader corporate responsibility framework, although specific targets or initiatives from the parent company have not been detailed. Overall, while Inter IKEA Systems B.V. has reported substantial emissions figures, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in their climate commitments.
