This figure includes 3,771,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, primarily from mobile combustion, and 3,750,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, which encompass various categories such as purchased goods and services, business travel, and employee commuting. Notably, Blancco did not report any Scope 2 emissions for the year. Comparatively, in 2021, the company recorded total emissions of approximately 7,170,900 kg CO2e, indicating an increase in emissions year-on-year.

Despite the increase in total emissions, Blancco has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organization, ensuring that the reported figures are solely reflective of Blancco's operations. Overall, while Blancco has made strides in transparency regarding its carbon footprint, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate commitments.
