In 2020, Werfen reported emissions data indicating a carbon footprint of approximately 0.00513 tonnes CO2e per £1 million in revenue, alongside an employee-related emission factor of about 3.1 kg CO2e per employee. However, specific Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions data were not disclosed, leaving a gap in understanding their total carbon emissions profile. Currently, Werfen has not established any formal reduction targets or initiatives, nor have they committed to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This absence of defined climate commitments suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it has yet to set measurable goals for reduction or engage in significant climate pledges. As a company headquartered in Spain (ES), Werfen operates within an industry increasingly focused on sustainability and carbon neutrality. The lack of detailed emissions data and reduction strategies highlights an opportunity for Werfen to enhance its climate commitments and align with global sustainability trends.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Werfen is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
