Scope 3 accounts for ••• of total emissions.
In 2025, Shimano reported total emissions of approximately 62.7 million kg CO2e, comprising about 10 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 and about 52.7 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a gap in their reporting on upstream and downstream emissions.
Shimano's emissions have shown fluctuations over recent years. For instance, in 2024, total emissions were also approximately 62.7 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at about 9.6 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 at about 53.1 million kg CO2e. In 2023, the total emissions were similar, at approximately 62.7 million kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 10.4 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 at about 52.4 million kg CO2e.
Despite these figures, Shimano has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, nor have they participated in initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate action strategies.
Shimano's emissions data is sourced directly from Shimano Inc., with no cascading from a parent or related organization. The company continues to focus on transparency in its emissions reporting, although it faces challenges in fully addressing its carbon footprint across all scopes.
