Italtile's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Italtile reported total carbon emissions of approximately 405,749,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 192,339,000 kg CO2e, primarily from stationary and mobile combustion, and Scope 2 emissions of approximately 138,482,000 kg CO2e from purchased electricity. Additionally, Scope 3 emissions were around 74,927,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from business travel and transportation. Comparatively, in 2022, Italtile's total emissions were about 450,453,000 kg CO2e, indicating a reduction in emissions year-on-year. The company has shown a consistent effort to lower its carbon footprint, with emissions decreasing from approximately 435,279,000 kg CO2e in 2021 to the latest figure in 2023. Despite these reductions, Italtile has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of formal reduction targets suggests that while the company is actively monitoring and reducing emissions, it may not yet have established a comprehensive framework for long-term climate commitments. Overall, Italtile's emissions data reflects a proactive approach to managing carbon emissions, with a focus on reducing both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, while also addressing Scope 3 emissions through operational improvements.
