Ricoh

Ricoh, headquartered in Japan and operating in the Computer and related services industry, has set ambitious climate commitments. For the reporting year 2025, the company reported total global emissions of approximately 1.44 billion kg CO2e. This includes Scope 1 emissions of about 97.8 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of approximately 98.8 million kg CO2e, and significant Scope 3 emissions totalling around 1.25 billion kg CO2e.

Ricoh is actively working towards reducing its environmental impact with several key targets. The company aims for a 63% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030, using 2015 as the base year. This near-term target is supported by a long-term commitment to achieve net-zero GHG emissions across its entire value chain by 2050. More recent targets indicate an aim to reduce Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 75.0% by FY2030 and to achieve net-zero emissions for Scope 1 and 2 by FY2040. For Scope 3 emissions, Ricoh has set a target of a 40% reduction by FY2030 for categories including purchased goods and services, upstream transportation and distribution, and use of sold products. Furthermore, Ricoh is reinforcing its approach by expanding its Scope 3 coverage to all categories, setting a new reduction target of 65% from the base year (FY2015) by 2040. The company also aims for 100% renewable energy usage for electricity in its business activities. In March 2024, Ricoh committed to achieving net zero GHG emissions for Scope 1 and 2 by 2040, ten years earlier than their previous 2050 target.

Ricoh's emission data is reported globally and is not cascaded from a parent organisation. The company's climate initiatives are also validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
