Nordson has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a focus on direct and indirect emissions from their operations and energy use. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, which suggests a potential area for future commitment. The emissions intensity for 2023 was approximately 0.01335 kg CO2e per USD of revenue, showing a slight improvement from 2022's intensity of about 0.01423 kg CO2e per USD. This trend indicates Nordson's ongoing efforts to enhance operational efficiency and reduce emissions relative to revenue generation. Overall, while Nordson has made strides in managing its carbon footprint, the absence of formal reduction targets highlights an opportunity for the company to strengthen its climate commitments in alignment with industry standards.
