This included approximately 2.715 billion kg CO2e from purchased goods and services, 468 million kg CO2e from fuel and energy-related activities, 404 million kg CO2e from upstream transportation and distribution, 244 million kg CO2e from processing of sold products, and 162 million kg CO2e from downstream transportation and distribution.

Looking back, in 2024, Scope 1 emissions were around 2.259 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 market-based emissions were about 99 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 3.880 billion kg CO2e.

For 2023, the company's total emissions were approximately 5.983 billion kg CO2e. This comprised about 2.176 billion kg CO2e from Scope 1, approximately 115 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based), and around 3.692 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3. Significant Scope 3 categories in 2023 included purchased goods and services at approximately 2.405 billion kg CO2e, use of sold products at around 341 million kg CO2e, and fuel and energy related activities at about 344 million kg CO2e.

RHI Magnesita has set several climate commitments. The company aims for net-zero emissions across all scopes by 2050. More specifically, they intend to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions to near zero by 2025. They also target an absolute reduction of 9% for Scope 1 emissions by 2030 and a 5% reduction for Scope 2 emissions by 2030, both against a 2024 baseline. Additionally, RHI Magnesita seeks to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 3 upstream emissions intensity by 10% per tonne CO2 by 2030, against a 2023 base year, and Scope 2 emissions intensity by 10% per tonne of product by 2030, against a 2024 base year. The company also has a near-term absolute target to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 30% by 2027, against a 2018 baseline.
