The company’s emissions data is sourced directly from RITEK Corporation, with no cascading from a parent or related organization. Ritek's emissions intensity, calculated as kg CO2e per unit of revenue, reflects their operational impact, but specific reduction initiatives or commitments to lower emissions have not been detailed in the available information. As such, Ritek's climate commitments remain unclear, and further transparency regarding their sustainability strategies would be beneficial for stakeholders.
