Toyobo

Toyobo, a Japan-based research and development services company, reported Scope 1 emissions of 615,000,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of 169,000,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of 3,996,000,000 kg CO2e for 2025. This includes approximately 1,458,000,000 kg CO2e from use of sold products and 114,000,000 kg CO2e from fuel and energy related activities.

The company has set several climate commitments. Toyobo aims to achieve net-zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions by fiscal year 2051. For near-term targets, the company is committed to reducing Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 27.0% by fiscal year 2031 from a fiscal year 2021 base year. Additionally, Toyobo targets a 12.5% reduction in Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services and use of sold products within the same timeframe (by fiscal year 2031 from a fiscal year 2021 base year). These targets have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and are classified as consistent with reductions required to keep warming to well-below 2°C. The company also has an intermediate target to reduce emissions by at least 46% compared to fiscal year 2014 by fiscal year 2031 for Scope 1 and Scope 2.
