In 2022, Gigaset reported carbon emissions of approximately 666,000 kg CO2e, all of which fall under Scope 1 emissions. This marks a significant focus on direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. In the previous year, 2021, the company disclosed Scope 3 emissions totalling about 134,536,000 kg CO2e, which includes various categories such as purchased goods and services, processing of sold products, and employee commuting. Gigaset has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions profile, it has yet to formalise a comprehensive strategy for emissions reduction. The emissions data is cascaded from Gigaset AG, the parent company, indicating a structured approach to reporting within its corporate family. This relationship underscores Gigaset's commitment to transparency in its environmental impact, although further details on specific reduction initiatives or commitments are not available at this time.
