In 2023, Materion Corporation reported total greenhouse gas emissions of approximately 73,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 127,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, resulting in a combined total of approximately 200,000,000 kg CO2e. This data reflects a slight increase in emissions compared to 2021, when Scope 1 emissions were about 71,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions were approximately 118,000,000 kg CO2e, totalling around 189,000,000 kg CO2e. Materion has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a potential area for future reporting and improvement. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, which suggests that their climate commitments may currently be limited. Overall, while Materion Corporation has made strides in tracking its emissions, the absence of reduction targets and Scope 3 data highlights opportunities for enhanced climate action and transparency in their sustainability efforts.
