INTOCAST AG's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, INTOCAST AG reported total carbon emissions of approximately 73,943,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, which includes emissions from mobile combustion (about 17,148,000 kg CO2e), fugitive emissions (about 75,000 kg CO2e), and stationary combustion (approximately 23,136,000 kg CO2e). The company’s Scope 2 emissions totalled around 17,516,000 kg CO2e, with purchased electricity contributing about 49,459,000 kg CO2e. Notably, Scope 3 emissions were significantly higher, amounting to approximately 69,050,457,000 kg CO2e, primarily driven by the use of sold products (about 66,845,993,000 kg CO2e). In 2023, INTOCAST AG's emissions were slightly lower, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 76,221,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at around 18,272,000 kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions for that year were about 63,324,759,000 kg CO2e. Despite these substantial figures, INTOCAST AG has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or SBTi commitments. The company is currently a subsidiary of a larger corporate family, inheriting emissions data from its parent organisation, which may influence its overall climate strategy. Overall, INTOCAST AG's emissions profile highlights the significant challenges faced in reducing carbon footprints, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which represent the majority of their total emissions.
