Maytag Corporation's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Whirlpool Corporation

Maytag Corporation, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures.

Whirlpool has made significant strides in addressing climate change, including commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). These initiatives aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across their operations, although specific targets for Maytag are not detailed. As part of its corporate family, Maytag aligns with Whirlpool's broader sustainability goals, which focus on reducing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, as well as engaging with suppliers to address Scope 3 emissions.
