In 2021, Akcoat reported total carbon emissions of approximately 205,000,000 kg CO2e, comprising 52,126,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 8,387,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and a significant 142,675,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This data highlights the company's substantial carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3, which often includes emissions from the supply chain and product use. Comparatively, in 2020, Akcoat's emissions were about 63,000,000 kg CO2e lower, with Scope 1 emissions at 52,673,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 6,794,000 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a need for ongoing efforts to reduce emissions across all scopes. Despite the high emissions figures, Akcoat has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or science-based targets suggests that while the company acknowledges its emissions, it may not yet have formalised a comprehensive strategy for significant reductions. Overall, Akcoat's emissions data underscores the importance of developing robust climate commitments to address their environmental impact effectively.
