In 2021, Kurimoto, Ltd. reported CO2 emissions of approximately 1,890 kg CO2e per tonne produced in their iron-pipe manufacturing facilities. This figure reflects a slight decrease from 2020, where emissions were about 1,910 kg CO2e per tonne. Over the past few years, emissions per unit have shown a general trend of reduction, with 2019 emissions at about 1,860 kg CO2e per tonne and 2018 at approximately 1,850 kg CO2e per tonne. However, there is no specific data available for Scope 1, Scope 2, or Scope 3 emissions, nor are there any disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from the company. Kurimoto's emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, indicating that the figures are independently reported. The company has not set any formal reduction targets through initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate commitments. As a result, while there is a positive trend in emissions per unit, the lack of comprehensive emissions data and formal commitments suggests that Kurimoto may need to enhance its climate strategy to align with industry standards.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Kurimoto is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
