In 2024, Murgitroyd reported total carbon emissions of approximately 902,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes 37,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 109,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (with 108,240 kg CO2e attributed to purchased electricity), and a significant 756,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. The Scope 3 breakdown reveals that business travel accounted for about 261,580 kg CO2e, while employee commuting contributed approximately 541,200 kg CO2e. Comparatively, in 2022, Murgitroyd's total emissions were about 553,000 kg CO2e, all of which were classified under Scope 1. In 2021, the total emissions were approximately 250,000 kg CO2e, also solely from Scope 1. This indicates a substantial increase in emissions over the years, particularly in Scope 3 categories, which are often the most challenging to manage. Currently, Murgitroyd has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor do they participate in recognised climate pledges such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments to align with industry standards and expectations. Murgitroyd's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, indicating that these figures are independently reported by Murgitroyd Group Limited. As the company continues to assess its carbon footprint, establishing clear reduction strategies will be crucial for improving its environmental impact.
