Resonac Corp.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Resonac Holdings Corporation

As of the latest available data, Resonac Corp. does not report specific carbon emissions figures, indicating a lack of detailed emissions data for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Resonac Holdings Corporation, which may influence its climate reporting and commitments. Resonac Corp. has not outlined any specific reduction targets or initiatives in its climate strategy, nor does it appear to have adopted any Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate action plan. Given the current context, Resonac Corp. may benefit from aligning its climate commitments with industry standards and best practices to enhance its sustainability profile. As a subsidiary, it may also look to leverage the climate strategies of its parent company, Resonac Holdings Corporation, to establish a more robust approach to carbon emissions management in the future.
