Scott Bader is committed to climate neutrality for both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2050, as part of their long-term objectives. A key initiative supporting this commitment is Project CARMA (Carbon-neutral Agroforestry-derived Resins to Materials for Automotive applications), launched in 2023. This project aims to utilise ultrasonic processing to convert waste sawdust into high-quality lignin, which Scott Bader will then use to develop sustainable composite resin formulations from waste biomass. This initiative applies to both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. The emissions data for Scott Bader is cascaded from its parent company, Scott Bader Company Limited.
