Makita's reported carbon emissions
In 2025, Makita's total carbon emissions amounted to approximately 4.4 billion kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 22.1 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 39.8 million kg CO2e, and a significant Scope 3 contribution of around 4.4 billion kg CO2e. The Scope 3 emissions are primarily driven by the use of sold products, which accounted for about 1.9 billion kg CO2e, and purchased goods and services, contributing approximately 1.8 billion kg CO2e. Makita has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The company does not appear to have cascaded any Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) targets from a parent organisation, as it operates independently in this regard. Overall, while Makita has made strides in measuring its emissions across all scopes, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for further commitment to climate action.
