In 2017, Koninklijke Ten Cate B.V. reported total carbon emissions of approximately 89,000 kg CO2e from operations and about 4,000 kg CO2e from business travel and commuting. These figures reflect emissions that are not specifically categorised under Scope 1, 2, or 3, indicating a lack of detailed scope classification in the available data. Currently, Koninklijke Ten Cate B.V. has not established any formal reduction targets or commitments, nor are there any climate pledges documented. The absence of specific initiatives or targets suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. As of now, there is no cascaded emissions data from a parent or related organisation, indicating that the reported figures are solely from Koninklijke Ten Cate B.V. itself. The company operates within an industry context that increasingly prioritises sustainability and carbon reduction, which may influence future commitments and reporting practices.
