SHW AG's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Pierer Industrie AG

SHW AG, headquartered in Germany (DE), currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Pierer Industrie AG, which may influence its climate-related initiatives and reporting. As of now, SHW AG has not established any documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of specific climate pledges suggests that the company is still in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. While no direct emissions data is available, SHW AG's climate commitments may be informed by the broader sustainability efforts of its parent company, Pierer Industrie AG. This relationship could provide a framework for future emissions reduction strategies and climate action initiatives. In summary, SHW AG is currently without specific emissions data or reduction targets, but its affiliation with Pierer Industrie AG may play a role in shaping its future climate commitments.
