The company's Scope 3 emissions include significant contributions from purchased goods and services (about 427,394,000 kg CO2e) and the use of sold products (approximately 59,062,000 kg CO2e). Over the years, Nitto Kogyo has shown fluctuations in its emissions, with Scope 1 emissions decreasing from about 25,113,000 kg CO2e in 2021 to approximately 26,578,000 kg CO2e in 2023.

Despite these figures, Nitto Kogyo has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. The company operates within a global context where many industries are increasingly focusing on sustainability and carbon neutrality, yet it appears to be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments.
