Sealed Air's reported carbon emissions
Sealed Air, headquartered in the US, is committed to climate action with significant targets. For 2024, the company reported Scope 1 emissions of approximately 158 million kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions (market-based) of about 260 million kg CO2e, resulting in combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions of approximately 418 million kg CO2e. In 2023, Sealed Air's Scope 1 emissions were around 124 million kg CO2e, with Scope 2 emissions at approximately 279 million kg CO2e, for a total of roughly 404 million kg CO2e. Sealed Air has set a target to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 46% by 2030, using 2019 as a base year. This target is validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and is consistent with a 1.5°C warming scenario. The company also aims to reduce absolute Scope 3 GHG emissions from purchased goods and services, as well as the use of sold products, by 15% within the same timeframe. Beyond these near-term goals, Sealed Air has announced an ambitious long-term commitment to achieve net-zero carbon dioxide emissions across its operations (Scopes 1 and 2) by 2040. The company's "2025 Sustainability and Plastics Pledge" also includes a commitment to design and advance packaging solutions to be 100% recyclable or reusable by 2025. While Scope 3 emissions data is not fully disclosed, Sealed Air is actively reporting on its Scope 1 and 2 performance and working towards its ambitious reduction goals.
