Kwikset Corporation's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc.

Kwikset Corporation, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years. The company is a current subsidiary of Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc., and any emissions data would be inherited from this parent organisation. As of now, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges from Kwikset Corporation. In the context of climate commitments, Kwikset's parent company, Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc., may have initiatives in place, but specific details regarding Kwikset's own climate strategies or emissions reduction efforts are not provided. The absence of data suggests that Kwikset may still be in the early stages of developing its climate action framework or reporting practices. Overall, while Kwikset Corporation is part of a larger corporate family that may have sustainability goals, it currently lacks publicly available emissions data and defined climate commitments.
