Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials AG's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Mitsubishi Chemical Group Corporation

Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials AG, headquartered in Switzerland (CH), currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Mitsubishi Chemical Group Corporation, which may influence its climate commitments and performance metrics. While there are no documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges from Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials AG, it is important to note that emissions data and performance metrics may be inherited from its parent company, Mitsubishi Chemical Group Corporation. This cascading of data occurs at a level 2 relationship, meaning that the broader corporate strategies and initiatives may impact the subsidiary's climate actions. As of now, Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials AG has not publicly outlined any specific initiatives or targets related to carbon emissions reduction. The company may align with the sustainability goals set by its parent organisation, which could include industry-standard climate commitments. However, without explicit data or targets, the specifics of their climate strategy remain unclear.
