Tarkett's reported carbon emissions

Tarkett, headquartered in France, has set ambitious climate commitments aimed at significantly reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Although specific emissions data for the most recent year is not available, Tarkett has established clear reduction targets under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company aims to reduce its absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 50% by 2030, using 2019 as the baseline year. Additionally, Tarkett is committed to a 27.5% reduction in absolute Scope 3 emissions, which encompass emissions from purchased goods and services as well as the end-of-life treatment of sold products, within the same timeframe. These targets align with the global effort to limit warming to 1.5°C, reflecting Tarkett's commitment to sustainable practices in the building products sector. The inclusion of biogenic land-related emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks in their target boundary further demonstrates a comprehensive approach to climate action. As Tarkett progresses towards these goals, it aims to enhance its environmental performance and contribute positively to climate change mitigation.
