Akcoat's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Akcoat reported total carbon emissions of approximately 203,000,000 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 its upstream activities. Comparatively, in 2020, Akcoat's emissions were about 59,413,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 6,794,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, indicating a slight decrease in Scope 1 emissions. However, comprehensive Scope 3 data was not disclosed for that year. Over the years, Akcoat has shown a trend of high emissions, with 2019 figures reaching approximately 2,169,145,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 146,366,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. The company has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit its ability to effectively address its carbon emissions in line with industry standards. Overall, while Akcoat has made some progress in tracking its emissions, the absence of defined reduction initiatives or commitments raises questions about its long-term climate strategy.
