Smeal Fire Apparatus Company's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Aebi Schmidt Holding AG

Smeal Fire Apparatus Company, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is part of a corporate family that includes The Shyft Group, Inc., from which it inherits emissions data and performance metrics. However, no specific emissions figures or reduction targets have been disclosed. As a merged entity, Smeal Fire Apparatus Company aligns its climate commitments with those of The Shyft Group, Inc. While there are no documented reduction initiatives or Science-Based Targets (SBTi) commitments available, the company is expected to adhere to industry standards and practices regarding climate action. In the absence of specific emissions data, Smeal Fire Apparatus Company’s climate strategy remains unclear. The company may benefit from the broader sustainability initiatives of its parent organisation, which could influence its future emissions reporting and reduction commitments.
