Let us know if this data was useful to you
James Hardie Building Products Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not provide specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of James Hardie Industries plc, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges from James Hardie Building Products Inc., emissions data and performance metrics may be inherited from its parent company, James Hardie Industries plc. This cascading of data suggests that any climate initiatives or targets may align with those set by the parent organisation. As of now, James Hardie Building Products Inc. has not publicly committed to specific science-based targets or initiatives under frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). The lack of detailed emissions data and reduction commitments highlights a potential area for improvement in transparency and accountability regarding climate impact. In summary, while James Hardie Building Products Inc. is part of a larger corporate structure that may have climate initiatives, specific emissions data and reduction targets are currently unavailable.
