Lawter Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Lawter Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as no emissions figures are available. The company is a current subsidiary of Harima Chemicals Group, Inc., which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. As of now, Lawter Inc. has not established any documented reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of specific targets suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Given the absence of direct emissions data and reduction commitments, it is essential for Lawter Inc. to align with industry standards and best practices in climate action. This could involve setting measurable targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions across all scopes, particularly focusing on Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, which are within the company's direct control. In summary, while Lawter Inc. currently lacks specific emissions data and reduction targets, its affiliation with Harima Chemicals Group, Inc. may provide a framework for future climate initiatives and commitments.
