Shaw Industries Group

Shaw Industries Group, a US-based company in the Leather and leather products industry, reported its 2024 Scope 1 emissions as 300 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions as 290 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions as 3,120 kg CO2e. For 2023, the company disclosed Scope 1 emissions of 300 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of 410 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of 2,030 kg CO2e.

Shaw Industries Group has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for net-zero operations across Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2030, a target established in 2023. This builds on their achievement in 2021, where they surpassed their original goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions intensity by 40% by 2030, nearly a decade ahead of schedule.

The company has made significant progress in reducing its emissions. By 2018, Shaw Industries Group had cut its combined Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 50% from a 2010 baseline. Furthermore, they had reduced their GHG intensity by 32% compared to 2010 (per pound of finished product) by 2018. More recently, in 2024, their Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions demonstrated a 64% reduction compared to their 2010 baseline.

Emissions data and reduction initiatives are reported directly by Shaw Industries Group, Inc., as confirmed by their performance sources. While Shaw Industries Group is a current subsidiary, its climate data is not cascaded from its parent company, Berkshire Hathaway Inc.
