In 2022, RTI reported total carbon emissions of approximately 15,335,000 kg CO2e, comprising 3,898,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 6,191,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 4,285,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions related to business travel, alongside 962,000 kg CO2e from employee commuting. Over the years, RTI's emissions have shown a general upward trend, with total emissions increasing from 14,000,000 kg CO2e in 2011 to 15,335,000 kg CO2e in 2022. Despite this increase, there are currently no publicly disclosed reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. RTI's commitment to addressing climate change is evident, but specific reduction strategies or targets have not been outlined. The organisation's emissions data reflects its operational impact, and further transparency regarding future climate commitments would enhance its sustainability profile.

Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Rti is not committed to any reduction initiatives we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
