Sandoz International GmbH's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Sandoz Group AG

Sandoz International GmbH, headquartered in Germany, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as no emissions figures are available. The company is a current subsidiary of Sandoz Group AG, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While Sandoz International GmbH has not outlined specific reduction targets or initiatives, it is important to note that its parent company, Sandoz Group AG, is involved in various climate initiatives, including the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). These initiatives are designed to promote transparency and accountability in corporate climate action. As a subsidiary, Sandoz International GmbH may align its climate strategies with those of Sandoz Group AG, which could include broader industry commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However, without specific data or targets from Sandoz International GmbH, it is challenging to provide a detailed overview of its carbon emissions and climate commitments.
