Leica Geosystems, headquartered in Switzerland (CH), currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Leica Geosystems Holdings AG and inherits its climate commitments and emissions data from its parent organisation, Hexagon AB (publ). As part of its climate strategy, Hexagon AB has set science-based targets (SBTi) aimed at reducing emissions across its operations. However, specific reduction targets or achievements for Leica Geosystems have not been disclosed. The company is committed to sustainability initiatives, although detailed information on their specific climate pledges or reduction initiatives is not provided. In summary, while Leica Geosystems is aligned with the broader climate commitments of Hexagon AB, specific emissions data and reduction targets for the company remain unspecified.
