Kronospan's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Kronospan reported total carbon emissions of approximately 13646000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 46649000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 144103000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This data reflects a significant reduction from 2022, where emissions were about 45061000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 61297000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 227724000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. Kronospan's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent company, indicating that these figures are independently reported. The company has not set specific reduction targets under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, nor have they disclosed any document reduction targets. The emissions intensity for Scope 1 in 2023 was reported at 231.4 kg CO2e per cubic metre of wood and articles of wood, showing a slight improvement from 240.0 kg CO2e per cubic metre in 2022. This indicates ongoing efforts to enhance operational efficiency and reduce carbon footprints in their production processes. Overall, while Kronospan has made strides in reducing emissions, the absence of formal reduction targets suggests a need for more structured climate commitments moving forward.
