Sibelco

Sibelco, a Belgian-headquartered company in the Other business services sector, reported its most recent Scope 1, 2, and 3 carbon emissions for 2025.

In 2025, Sibelco's total calculated emissions were approximately 8.637 billion kg CO2e. This included approximately 236.8 million kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and approximately 201.3 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 (market-based) emissions. Scope 3 emissions were approximately 8.199 billion kg CO2e, with significant contributors including processing of sold products (approximately 5.695 billion kg CO2e) and upstream transportation and distribution (approximately 1.050 billion kg CO2e).

Looking back, Sibelco's total calculated emissions were about 8.949 billion kg CO2e in 2024, approximately 9.715 billion kg CO2e in 2023, approximately 10.882 billion kg CO2e in 2022, and about 12.307 billion kg CO2e in 2021.

Sibelco has established near-term climate commitments through the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). SCR-Sibelco NV commits to reduce Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 5% year-on-year per euro revenue, equivalent to a 22.5% absolute reduction, by 2030 from a 2021 base year. These targets are classified as consistent with reductions required to keep warming to well-below 2°C. Additionally, SCR-Sibelco NV commits that 68.9% of its suppliers and customers by emissions, covering 37% of upstream transportation and distribution emissions and 85% of processing of sold products emissions, will have science-based targets by 2026. The company's internal reporting also states that the intensity target leads to a cumulative reduction of 37% in absolute emissions from 2021 to 2030, assuming the same scope of activities. Their Scope 1 absolute reduction target is currently on track, while their Scope 2 absolute reduction target is not.
