KMC's reported carbon emissions
In 2024, KMC reported zero carbon emissions associated with their production processes, indicating a significant commitment to sustainability. The emissions data, which includes various product categories such as native potato starch and modified starch, shows no recorded emissions in kilograms of CO2 equivalent (kg CO2e) for these products. KMC has not specified any reduction targets or initiatives under frameworks such as the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) or the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). This absence of formal reduction commitments suggests that while KMC may be operating with low emissions, they have not publicly outlined specific goals for future reductions. Overall, KMC's current emissions data reflects a proactive approach to minimising their carbon footprint, although further transparency regarding their long-term climate commitments would enhance their sustainability profile.
