Oldcastle's reported carbon emissions

In 2019, Oldcastle, a subsidiary of CRH Americas, Inc., reported specific gross CO2 emissions of approximately 641 kg CO2e per tonne of cementitious product. This figure reflects the company's ongoing commitment to monitoring and managing its carbon footprint within the cement industry. The previous year's data from 2018 indicated a slight increase in emissions, with gross CO2 emissions at about 644 kg CO2e per tonne, while in 2017, the emissions were approximately 624 kg CO2e per tonne. Oldcastle's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, CRH plc, which is actively engaged in various climate initiatives. However, as of the latest reports, Oldcastle has not disclosed specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may still be in the process of establishing concrete climate commitments. Overall, Oldcastle's emissions data highlights the importance of transparency in the cement sector, where carbon emissions are a critical concern. The company continues to align with industry standards while navigating the complexities of climate commitments through its corporate family relationship with CRH plc.
