Spartech, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a merged entity, inheriting emissions data and climate commitments from its parent organisation, Avient Corporation. As such, any climate initiatives or targets may reflect those of Avient. Spartech has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or achievements related to carbon emissions. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the process of establishing its own climate strategy, potentially influenced by Avient's commitments. As a merged entity, Spartech's climate commitments may align with Avient Corporation's sustainability goals, which include participation in various climate initiatives such as the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) and RE100. However, specific details regarding emissions reductions or targets have not been provided. In summary, while Spartech is positioned within a corporate family that has climate commitments, it currently lacks specific emissions data and reduction targets of its own.
