In 2020, Malvern Panalytical reported total carbon emissions of approximately 172,700,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 3,149,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of around 4,264,000 kg CO2e, and a significant contribution from Scope 3 emissions, which totalled approximately 165,302,000 kg CO2e. Notably, the Scope 3 emissions breakdown includes business travel (about 778,100 kg CO2e), employee commute (approximately 1,908,000 kg CO2e), and the use of sold products (around 98,032,000 kg CO2e). Malvern Panalytical has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for Net Zero in its Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030, with a target of achieving an 85% reduction based on a 1.5°C warming scenario. This commitment is part of a broader initiative inherited from its parent company, Spectris plc, which also aims for Net Zero in its operations by 2030. Furthermore, Malvern Panalytical plans to extend its Net Zero goals across its entire value chain by 2040. These targets reflect a proactive approach to climate action, aligning with industry standards and science-based targets to mitigate climate change impacts.

Nearly all of their carbon footprint comes from suppliers and value chain emissions, representing nearly all emissions under the GHG Protocol, with "Use of Sold Products" being the largest emissions source at 59% of Scope 3 emissions.
Climate goals typically focus on 2030 interim targets and 2050 net-zero commitments, aligned with global frameworks like the Paris Agreement and Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to ensure alignment with global climate goals.
Malvern Panalytical has not publicly committed to specific 2030 or 2050 climate goals through the major frameworks we track. Companies often set interim 2030 targets and long-term 2050 net-zero goals to demonstrate measurable progress toward decarbonization.
