Cementir Holding

Cementir Holding, an Italy-headquartered company in the Cement, lime, and plaster industry, reported total emissions of 10 billion kg CO2e in 2025. This includes approximately 7.1 billion kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, 400 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions (location-based), and 2.5 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions.

Looking back, in 2024, Cementir Holding reported total emissions of 9.8 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at around 6.9 billion kg CO2e, Scope 2 (location-based) at 400 million kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 2.5 billion kg CO2e. In 2023, total emissions were approximately 10.31 billion kg CO2e, comprising 7.2 billion kg CO2e from Scope 1, 424.42 million kg CO2e from Scope 2 (location-based), and 2.6 billion kg CO2e from Scope 3.

Cementir Holding is committed to significant emissions reductions. They have set Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) validated targets to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across their value chain by 2050.

Their near-term SBTi targets include:

• Reducing gross Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 29.33% per tonne of cementitious product by 2030, using a 2021 base year.
• Reducing gross Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services by 23.00% per tonne of purchased clinker and cement by 2030, using a 2021 base year.

For long-term goals, Cementir Holding aims to:

• Reduce gross Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 96.1% per tonne of cementitious product by 2050, from a 2021 base year.
• Reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions by 90% by 2050, from a 2021 base year.

Additional commitments include reducing Scope 1 emissions to less than 500 kg of CO2 per tonne of grey cement by 2030 (compared to 684 kg in 2021), a 26% reduction. They also target a 42% reduction in Scope 1 emissions for grey cement to 417 kg CO2/tonne and a 29% reduction for white cement to 653 kg CO2/tonne by 2030, against a 2020 baseline. These targets align with reductions required to keep global warming to 1.5°C.
