Glaston

Glaston's climate commitments centre on reducing greenhouse gas emissions across its operations and value chain. The company has set targets aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), aiming for a 50.4% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2032, using a 2022 baseline. Additionally, Glaston commits to a 58.1% reduction in Scope 3 GHG emissions per square metre of sold machine processing capacity within the same timeframe.

In terms of emissions data, for 2021, Glaston reported a total of approximately 289,956,000 kg CO2e. This included Scope 1 emissions of approximately 708,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 1,900,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions of approximately 287,348,000 kg CO2e.

For preceding years, the available data focuses on Scope 1 and 2 emissions:

• 2020: Approximately 2,777,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1 and 2).
• 2019: Approximately 2,830,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1 and 2).

For more recent years, preliminary Scope 1 and 2 emissions data is available:

• 2025 (provisional): Approximately 1,495,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1 and 2).
• 2024 (provisional): Approximately 1,539,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1 and 2).
• 2023 (provisional): Approximately 1,238,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1 and 2).
• 2022 (provisional): Approximately 1,491,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1 and 2).

It is important to note that Scope 3 data is not fully disclosed for all years, with missing data points such as "purchased goods and services" reported for several years.

Glaston's SBTi targets are considered absolute reduction targets and are aligned with a 1.5°C pathway. The company has also previously committed to reducing its direct and indirect GHG emissions (Scope 1 + 2) in relation to net sales by 50% by 2025 from a 2020 baseline.
