PureCircle Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Ingredion Incorporated

PureCircle Limited, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. The company is a current subsidiary of Ingredion Incorporated, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While PureCircle Limited has not established its own reduction targets or climate pledges, it is important to note that any potential targets or initiatives may be inherited from its parent company, Ingredion Incorporated. This relationship suggests that PureCircle may align with Ingredion's sustainability strategies, which could include industry-standard climate initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). As of now, PureCircle Limited's climate commitments remain unspecified, and the company has not disclosed any significant reduction achievements. The lack of specific emissions data and reduction targets highlights the need for further transparency in their environmental impact and sustainability efforts.
