Rimowa GmbH's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from LVMH Moët Hennessy - Louis Vuitton, Société Européenne

Rimowa GmbH, headquartered in Germany, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of LVMH Moët Hennessy - Louis Vuitton, Société Européenne, and thus inherits emissions data and climate commitments from its parent organisation. As part of its climate strategy, Rimowa aligns with the sustainability initiatives set forth by LVMH, which include participation in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). These initiatives aim to establish robust frameworks for measuring and reducing greenhouse gas emissions across their operations. While specific reduction targets or achievements for Rimowa are not detailed, the overarching commitments from LVMH suggest a focus on significant emissions reductions and sustainable practices. The company is also involved in the RE100 initiative, which promotes the use of 100% renewable energy, although specific commitments at the Rimowa level are not disclosed. In summary, while Rimowa GmbH does not provide specific emissions data or reduction targets, it is committed to sustainability through its affiliation with LVMH, which sets a precedent for climate action and emissions management within the luxury goods sector.
